The Rivers State political crisis deepened further on Thursday as six commissioners loyal to ex-governor Nyesom Wike resigned from the cabinet of Governor Siminalayi Fubara. This was as the two factions of the split state House of Assembly held separate sittings on Thursday. The commissioners, who tendered their resignation were the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice,  Prof. Zacchaeus Adangor (SAN); Commissioner for Works, Dr Des George-Kelly; Commissioner for Special Duties, Emeka Woke; Commissioner for Social Welfare and Rehabilitation, Mrs Inime Aguma;  the Commissioner for Finance, Isaac Kamalu; and the  Commissioner for Education, Prof. Chinedu Mmom. Of the six commissioners, five served under Wike’s administration in the same capacity, while Woke was Wike’s Chief of Staff for eight years. There are reports of more resignations that can not be confirmed yet, but the next few days surely will be more interesting in Rivers State.
