Blessing Ibunge in Port Harcourt 

Rivers State Governor, Mr Siminalayi Fubara, has sworn in five new commissioners recently cleared by the state assembly, charging them to give their best in advancing the development agenda of the state.

The newly inaugurated members of the State Executive Council were Mr. Tonye Bellgam, Prof. Temple Nwofor, Dr. Peters Nwagor, Mr. Lekue Kenneth, and Amairigha Edward Hart.

Congratulating the commissioners on their appointments, the governor said their clearance by the State Assembly after what he described as a rigorous screening process demonstrated their competence and readiness for service.

He noted that the thorough scrutiny by lawmakers had already served as a form of orientation, he further expressed confidence that the new commissioners were prepared to discharge their duties effectively.

“Ordinarily, I should charge you on your responsibilities and how to operate, but that has been taken care of by the screening at the Assembly,” the governor said.

Fubara stressed that the rigorous exercise had shown that those who emerged successful were capable of contributing meaningfully to the administration’s development drive.

He, therefore, urged them to justify the confidence reposed in them and work diligently to accelerate progress across the state.

The governor added that his administration expects nothing short of excellent service from the new commissioners as part of efforts to place Rivers State on a faster path of growth and development.
