The Executive Governor of Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano has appointed a 30-yr-old man
named Mark Okoye as a commissioner in his government. Mark was yesterday
confirmed as the Honourable Commissioner for Economic Planning &
Budget Development by the Anambra State House of Assembly and is
regarded as the youngest commissioner in Nigeria.
Now a tweet from Gov Obiano's official twitter account that links to a statement on a website announcing the appointment - described Mark as a '30-yr-old young and sound boy'. The term 'boy' attracted the attention of twitter users who found it condescending.
See their reactions after
the cut.
