Meet Grace Ogwuche, first female federal minister from Idomaland

Grace Ooja Ogwuche was a minister under former president, Olusegun Obasanjo.

Ogwuche was the second female minister from Benue State after Elizabeth Ivase and the first from Idoma land.

Outspoken Mrs. Ogwuche, a native of Akpa, in Otukpo served in various ministries such as Inter-Governmental Affairs, Youth Development and Special Duties, Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources as well as Education.

During her reign as the minister of the federal republic, Mrs. Ogwuche was said to have facilitated the employment of many Idoma natives into civil service.

Following her exit from office, she has been maintaining a private life as nothing has been heard from her lately.
