Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State has dissolved the State Executive Council, effective immediately.
The announcement was contained in a statement issued on Friday by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr Enobong Uwah, in Uyo.
According to the statement, former commissioners and special advisers have been directed to hand over to permanent secretaries in their respective ministries. For ministries without permanent secretaries, the most senior director will take over.
“The governor expresses his sincere appreciation to the outgoing executive council members for their dedicated service to the state. He wishes them well in their future endeavours and thanks them for their contributions to the development of the state,” the statement read.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the dissolved executive council had been inherited by Governor Eno from his predecessor, Mr Udom Emmanuel, approximately 19 months ago.
