Delta State chairman of the Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), Mr. Sunny Ogwu, Tuesday fumbled and disgraced himself publicly following his inability to read coherently his own speech before the Minister of States for Education, Mr. Anthony Anwukah and management team of the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) at the 19th quarterly meeting between UBEC Management and chairmen of states SUBEB, held at the Unity Hall of the old government house, Asaba.

Ogwu, who was called up to deliver his address could not pronounced correctly words such as “demonstrated”, “collaboration”, “nutrition”, “as at when due”, “screening/verification”, “conducted”, “consultant”, “biometrics”, “electronically” and “absenteeism”, thereby throwing participants into grumbling and murmuring.

It was observed that as the state chairman of SUBEB was busy fumbling and disgracing himself with pronunciation of words, the state commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Mr. Chiedu Ebie, who represented the governor Ifeanyi Okowa was seen with perplexity written all over his face and murmuring while others at the high table talked in hush tones.

The inability of Ogwu to read his speech coherently prolonged the section and sent dismay to the audience who were left with shocks while some of the participants described the chairman as a “digital chairman” others murmured loudly as he battled to articulate his own speech.

Meanwhile, a member of SUBEB shortly after the event absconded with N500, 000 meant for publicity and other things and the food meant for the event were diverted by the same member.

It would be recalled that sometime ago, Governor Okowa’s former commissioner for special duties, now Lands and Survey, Mr. Chika Ossai, his Youth Development counterpart, Mr. Asupa Forteta and former governor James Ibori’s daughter and member representing Ethiope West in the state Assembly, Erhiatake Ibori, had suffered similar faith at different occasions when they were presenting their speeches at the government house.
