Francis Nwifuru, governor of Ebonyi, has sacked Stanley Lebechi Mbam, the state commissioner for works, months after he suspended him indefinitely over alleged dereliction of duty.
Monday Uzor, chief press secretary to the governor,
announced this in a statement on Saturday, but did not state any reason for the
commissioner’s removal.
“The Governor of Ebonyi State, His Excellency Rt. Hon .
Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, FNIOB, FCAI GGCEHF has directed the immediate removal
from office the Honourable Commissioner for Works Engr. Stanley Lebechi Mbam,”
the statement reads.
The governor directed Mbam to transfer his responsibilities
to the permanent secretary in the ministry of works.
He was also asked to hand over all government property in
his possession, including his official vehicle, to the secretary to the state
government.
The governor assured residents that his administration
remained focused on delivering effective governance and improving public
infrastructure.
In May, Nwifuru suspended the works commissioner alongside
Ogbonnaya Abara, commissioner for infrastructure concession for development.
However, he reportedly recalled the suspended officials
later that month.
