It would be recalled that Uzodinma had alleged two weeks ago that some of his appointees were moles sabotaging his administration.
The sacking of the commissioners was confirmed by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Nwachuku Oguwike, noting that the governor wished them well in their future endeavours.
“The news is correct. 20 commissioners were affected while eight were not affected. The reason is to infuse new blood and add more value to the governance system of the state,” the governor’s spokesperson said.
The eight commissioners not sacked by the governor include the ministries of Health, Youth and Sports, Tourism, Information and Strategy, Woman Affairs, Works, Finance, and Technology.
