A faction of the Rivers State House of Assembly, aligned with Governor Siminalayi Fubara, is set to screen and potentially confirm eight commissioner nominees this Tuesday. The nominees’ names were submitted by the governor.
The nominees include Hon. Charles Bekee, Mr. Collins Onunwo, Hon. Solomon Eke, Dr. Peter Medee, Hon. Elloka Tasie-Amadi, Hon. Basoene Benibo, Mr. Tambari Sydney Gbara, and Dr. Ovy Orluideye Chukwuma.
A statement from the House Clerk, Dr. Godsgift Gillis-West, instructed the nominees to appear at the Hallowed Chamber of the House, located at the Admin Block, Government House, Port Harcourt, by 10:00 am.
The statement reads: “The Rivers State House of Assembly hereby invites the following commissioner nominees for screening and confirmation as members of the Rivers State Executive Council. Venue: Hallowed Chamber, Rivers State House of Assembly, Auditorium, Admin. Block, Rivers State Government House, Port Harcourt. The nominees are to come along with twelve sets of their Curriculum Vitae (CV) and the originals and photocopies of their credentials.”
The screening comes just a week after the confirmation and swearing-in of Dagogo Iboroma, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), as Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice.
These nominees are expected to fill the vacancies left by the mass resignation of commissioners loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief Nyesom Wike.
