Gov Siminalayi Fubara Reshuffled State Cabinet
Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has recently reshuffled his cabinet, making some significant changes in response to the ongoing political turmoil in the state. This move came to light through a series of official statements and communications from the Rivers State Government and was widely discussed across various platforms.
The reshuffling saw the redeployment of two key officials, Prof. Zacchaeus Adangor, the former Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, and Isaac Kamalu, the former Commissioner for Finance. Prof. Adangor was moved to the Ministry of Special Duties (Governor’s Office), while Kamalu was transferred to the Ministry of Employment Generation and Economic Empowerment.
This cabinet reshuffle is particularly noteworthy because both Adangor and Kamalu are known loyalists of Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). The political crisis between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Wike, has been a subject of public interest for some time.
The decision to reshuffle the cabinet was made public through a statement by Dr. Tammy Danagogo, the Secretary to the Rivers State Government. In the statement, it was emphasized that the reshuffling was a strategic move to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of governance in key sectors of the state.
Governor Fubara’s administration has faced several challenges, including political tensions and resignations from the cabinet, since its inception. The recent cabinet reshuffling is seen as an attempt to stabilize the government and ensure it is better positioned to deliver on its development objectives.
The redeployment of Adangor and Kamalu to new ministries is expected to have significant implications for the state’s governance and political dynamics. It remains to be seen how these changes will affect the ongoing political crisis and the overall performance of Governor Fubara’s administration.
