Ikpeazu Recalls Suspended Chief of Staff, Dissolves Cabinet

Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu has announced the immediate recall of the state's Chief of Staff, Dr. Anthony CB Agbazuere.

Recall that Ikpeazu had suspended the Agbazuere after an undated video emerged online showing him (Agbazuere)  spraying money on controversial prophet Odumeje popularly called as ‘Indaboski’.
 
A statement on Saturday by Ikpeazu's Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka, revealed that the governor also approved the immediate dissolution of the State Executive Council.

He expressed his deep appreciation for their services to the people of Abia State and wished them well for the future.

Meanwhile, it was gathered that some of the serving commissioners have started lobbying for reappointment by the governor who is expected to announce the new nominated commissioners' names to the State House of Assembly for confirmation by next week.
