Cabinet Shake-up: Imo State governor sacks all his commissioners, including top officials

Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has dismissed his entire cabinet members in what appears to be a strategic bid to restrengthen his administration.

The governor on Tuesday, May 30, 2017, sacked his state executive council and 27 local government transition committees with immediate effect.

In a statement by the Principal Secretary to the Governor, Pascal Obi, the Governor ordered the affected commissioners and transition committees to hand over to permanent secretaries or the most senior director in their ministries.
