http://pointblanknews.com/new/news/3503-sacked-school-teacher-sues-gov-okorocha.html


One of the sacked beneficiaries of Ex-Governor Ikedi Ohakim’s Ten Thousand Job Scheme in Imo State Mrs. Grace C. Onyekuru, has sued Governor Rochas Okorocha and the Imo State Government in the Owerri High Court for her re-instatement as a primary school teacher and for arrears of salaries.

This is contained in a writ of summons and other court processes filed on behalf of Mrs. Onyekuru by her lawyer, Sir Emperor Iwuala against the Imo State Governor and the Government of Imo State recently made available to our judicial correspondent.

In the case with suit number HOW/713/2011, Mrs. Onyekuru among other things, is asking the court to declare that she was validly employed as a Level 07 (1) Headmaster Grade III in March last year by the Imo State Government but was unlawfully disengaged from employment by the Okorocha administration. Also she is claiming arrears of salaries and other entitlements of a Level 07 Headmaster Grade III from the time of her alleged employment till the time she would be re-instated.

Defendants in the suit include the Governor of Imo State, the Imo State Universal Education Board (SUBEB), the Imo State Government and the Attorney General of Imo State.

Feelers from government quarters say that all the defendants have been served with the relevant court processes. As provided in the Imo State High Court Rules, the defendants have 42 days to file their defence in the matter.

Speaking to newsmen in his office, counsel to the claimant, Sir Iwuala promised to extend free legal services to other sacked beneficiaries who would wish to seek legal redress against their sack.

Please spare us the rubbish posts suggesting that this teacher is definitely working for the last administrator, Ohakim. That silly argument is old and ridiculous at best.

U talking to urself again, those are early signs.

I see u have a personal vandetta against Okorocha.

Sit over there and continue to feed urself with propagander.

Looks like now win, no fee has finally caught on in Naija, it is good, as long as the judiciary are doing their jobs accordingly the common man and woman has hope.

I don't know who the Sir Iwuala is but I commend him for such action. This is what we need more of and I hope many more of the 10,000 will step up to ensure Government does not use the people to play this sort of Ping-Pong in the future. What happened to these people is wrong, no matter what side you want to look at it from. No administration has a right to use the people for political gain and no administration has any right to dump on the people for the so-called wrongs of prior administrations.

@kobonjukie, who get time for this ur rubish. I jst skippd the post nd go straight to my comment. I thought u hv grown up.

And who told you Ohakim would not sack them the moment he wins the election and he is back at the Governor's Lodge. Nigerian Politicians can and would do anything for power,
