In a move widely seen as consolidating the recent peace accord in the state, Governor Siminalayi Fubara has approved the appointment of Dr. Dagogo S.A. Wokoma as Secretary to the State Government (SSG) and Barrister Sunny Ewule as Chief of Staff (CoS).
The appointments, which take immediate effect, are interpreted as part of ongoing efforts to stabilise the political climate and strengthen governance structures following the new peace deal in Rivers State.
The new appointees are scheduled to be sworn in at 2:00 p.m. today at the Executive Council Chamber of Government House, Port Harcourt.
Political observers note that the reconstitution of key positions within the Governor’s inner cabinet signals a deliberate step towards inclusiveness and administrative cohesion, in line with the spirit of reconciliation that has recently reshaped the state’s political landscape.
The announcement was conveyed in a statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Onwuka Nzeshi, who affirmed that the appointments are aimed at reinforcing effective service delivery and sustaining the momentum of peace and governance in the state.
With the latest development, expectations are high that the new SSG and Chief of Staff will play pivotal roles in translating the gains of the peace accord into tangible dividends for the people.
