Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has redeployed two commissioners who are loyalists of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

The former Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Prof. Zacchaeus Adangor SAN, was deployed to the Ministry of Special Duties (Governor’s Office).

The other is the former Commissioner for Finance, Isaac Kamalu, who has been deployed to the Ministry of Employment Generation and Economic Empowerment.

This minor cabinet reshuffle was contained in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, the state capital, on Tuesday by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Tammy Danagogo.

The statement directed the duo to hand over to their respective permanent secretaries, saying their redeployments take immediate effect.

The statement titled ‘Cabinet Reshuffle,’ reads, “His Excellency, the Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has approved a minor cabinet reshuffle thus:

“Prof. Zacchaeus Adangor SAN, the former Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice is now deployed to the Ministry of Special Duties (Governor’s Office).

“Barr. Isaac Kamalu, the former Commissioner for Finance, is now deployed to the Ministry of Employment Generation and Economic Empowerment.

“They are to handover to their respective Permanent Secretaries
immediately as this deployment takes immediate effect.

“All hand-over processes must be completed immediately.”

Both Adangor and Kamalu were among nine commissioners who resigned their positions from Fubara’s cabinet in the heat of the political crisis that rocked the state.

The development followed a protracted feud between former Governor Wike and his successor, Fubara.

Following the intervention of President Bola Tinubu, an eight-point truce was reached which mandated Fubara to reappoint the resigned commissioners.

The statement did not indicate if one of Wike’s loyalists, Emeka Woke, who held the office of the Commissioner for Special Duties before now has been sacked.

Woke, even as a serving commissioner in Fubara’s cabinet, has openly been speaking against the current administration at events.

He was the Chief of Staff to Wike, while the latter was governor.
