Rivers Attorney-General rejects redeployment, resigns from cabinet

Rivers State

Rivers State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Zacchaeus Adangor has rejected his redeployment as Commissioner for Special Duties.

Zacchaeus also tendered his resignation letter from the state executive council.

It would be recalled that Zacchaeus had, on 14 December, resigned his position as the Attorney-General of the state following the face-off between Governor Sim Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.

Fubara, earlier in the week, reshuffled his cabinet and redeployed Zacchaeus as the commissioner for Special Duties (Governor’s Office).

 

In a letter addressed to the Secretary to the Rivers State government, Zacchaeus rejected his new office.
