The Rivers State House of Assembly has commenced the process of confirming the appointment of commissioners and members of the Rivers State Executive Council recently nominated by Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
InfoStride News recalls that Fubara recently dissolved the state executive council and all his special advisers, a move widely interpreted by political analysts as part of the recent truce between him and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, reportedly brokered by President Bola Tinubu.
Following the dissolution, the governor forwarded a fresh list of nominees to the Assembly for screening and confirmation.
In a statement issued on Monday, the Clerk of the House, Emeka Amadi, invited the nominees to submit 40 copies of their Curriculum Vitae, photocopies of their credentials, and evidence of compliance with tax obligations.
The statement added that all required documents should be forwarded to the Office of the Clerk at the Rivers State House of Assembly Quarters.
The nominees include Professor Datonye Alasia; Mr Tonye Bellgam; Professor Temple Nwofor; Dr Peters Nwagor; Mrs Charity Deemua; Tamuno Williams, Esq; Mr Lekue Kenneth; Otonye TKD Amachree, Esq; and Sir Amairigha Edward Hart.
