Dora Akunyili
The former Minister of Information, Prof. Dora Akunyuli, passed away June 7 at the age of 59 and the ceremony is scheduled to take place August 28. However according to Vanguard today Dike promised to use his mystical power to disrupt the ritual in Agulu, Anaocha LGA, Anambra State.
Explaining his claim Dike said that the late ex-minister’s husband and other state officials went behind him to meet other rain makers in the town without recognizing him as the best rain maker of the state:
“Dora, herself is also my wife and we are all sharing in the pain of her death but since they sidelined me in controlling the weather, they will see rainfall tomorrow (That is Thursday) and throughout the week unless they do the needful. Let it also be on record that I am not insisting on loosing the heaven tomorrow because I was not consulted but because they went to see other rain makers with lots of gift items to control the weather which they know I can do without charging anything. We shall test powers tomorrow.”
Dora Akunyili, the former Director General, National Agency for Food, Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) is widely recognized as a woman of substance, who lived the life in the service of her country. She could have celebrated her 60th birthday on July 14, however this was not destined to happen because of her 2-year-long battle with cancer.
Nigerian top dignitaries, including President Goodluck Jonathan, paid tribute to the Great Woman at the Requiem Mass held in Abuja.
