A Quiet 51 Birthday Bash For Imo Deputy Gov. Madumere

IMO State Deputy Governor, Prince Eze Madumere, has just clocked 51. And to celebrate the day, the handsome Igbo prince gathered a few friends, family and several associates last Saturday to mark the day.

Prince Madumere is truly the new face of what political office holders should be, displaying dignity, integrity, service to the people, sacrifice, humility, kindness and love towards the people on whose mandate the privileges attached to the office he is occupying today came from.

Speaking recently in Owerri, the state capital while marking the occasion, he said his joy is unconnected to his achievements in the last four years in Imo State as deputy governor.

According to him, he had been with Governor Rochas Okorocha for well over 20 years and this seem to be the reason that could be attributed to their unrivaled good relationship which dates back from when they were working together as partners in one of the business concerns of the governor. This afforded him the honour and privilege to have traveled to all the 774 local government areas in the country, marketing and distributing the best of typhoid drugs in Africa.

This relationship culminated in him becoming the Chief of Staff to the Governor in 2011 when Rochas Okorocha won the election to become Governor of Imo State.

He subsequently became the substantive Deputy Governor with the clearance of the House of Assembly when the former Deputy Governor was impeached and his name was submitted to the house by the Governor to be his deputy. His impressive contribution in the first term of the governor has again fetched him his present position as second man in the state, the reason he needed to celebrate.
