Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, dissolves the State Executive Council in a decisive move widely seen as part of a new political phase following renewed reconciliation efforts within the state’s leadership structure.
According to Mediaplusng.com, the dissolution is formally announced in a statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Onwuka Nzeshi, confirming that all commissioners and special advisers are relieved of their duties with immediate effect. The announcement marks a significant development in Rivers State politics and signals administrative restructuring at the highest level of government.
In the official directive, Governor Fubara instructs all affected cabinet members to hand over to Permanent Secretaries or the most senior civil servants within their respective ministries. The transition process takes immediate effect, ensuring continuity in governance and preventing administrative vacuum across key ministries and agencies of the Rivers State Government.
As reported by Mediaplusng.com, the governor expresses appreciation to the outgoing Executive Council members for their contributions and service to the state. He acknowledges their efforts in supporting his administration and wishes them success in their future endeavours. The tone of the message reflects gratitude while underscoring the need for a fresh administrative direction.
The dissolution comes shortly after a widely publicized reconciliation between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, a development that effectively eases months of political tension in Rivers State. The reconciliation reshapes the political landscape and restores a measure of stability following prolonged disagreements that impact governance and legislative activities within the state.
In its continued coverage, Mediaplusng.com notes that political observers interpret the dissolution of the Executive Council as a strategic step toward rebuilding cohesion within the state’s political structure. Analysts suggest that the move creates room for the governor to reconstitute his cabinet in alignment with the new political understanding and emerging governance priorities.
The Rivers State Executive Council, comprising commissioners and special advisers, plays a central role in policy formulation, project supervision, and implementation of the administration’s development agenda. With its dissolution, attention now shifts to the anticipated formation of a new cabinet that reflects the governor’s strategic vision for the next phase of his administration.
Stakeholders across Rivers State describe the development as a potential turning point. Many believe that the reconciliation between the two political leaders could foster improved cooperation between the executive and other arms of government, enhance policy execution, and stabilize the state’s political environment.
Governor Fubara’s decision signals a recalibration of governance strategy as he charts what appears to be a new chapter for Rivers State. The reconstitution of the Executive Council is expected to prioritize administrative efficiency, political inclusiveness, and renewed focus on development initiatives.
As Rivers residents await the announcement of new cabinet appointments, the dissolution underscores the dynamic nature of political leadership and governance in the state.
