In a significant move, the Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, has carried out major adjustments in his cabinet.
The reshuffle was officially announced through a circular from the office of the Secretary to the State Government, titled ‘Cabinet Reshufflement’ and signed by Dr. Tammy Wenike Danagogo, the Secretary to the state government.
This decision comes amid the ongoing political crises between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, who now serves as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief Nyesom Wike.
The circular specifies that the Governor has approved some changes.
It read: “His Excellency, the Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, GSSRS, has approved a minor cabinet reshufflement thus: Prof. Zacchaeus Adangor SAN, DSSRS, the former Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, is now deployed to the MINISTRY OF SPECIAL DUTIES (GOVERNOR’S OFFICE)
“Barr. Isaac Kamalu, DSSRS, the former Commissioner for Finance, is now deployed to the MINISTRY OF EMPLOYMENT GENERATION AND ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT.
“They are to hand-over to their respective Permanent Secretaries immediately as this deployment/reshufflement takes immediate effect. All hand-over processes must be completed immediately.”
