BEVERLY HILLS, November 02, (THEWILL) – Governor of Ebonyi state, David Umahi, has fired the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr Augustine Nwankwagu, from the cabinet with immediate effect.
Chief Clement Nweke, Principal Secretary to the Governor, made this known in a statement issued on Thursday in Abakaliki, saying Nwankwagu was dropped for “acts inconsistent with his office.”
According to Nweke, Nwankwagu, who was a former Speaker, Ebonyi House of Assembly, has been ordered to handover all government property in his possession to the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry.
“This directive should be carried out before close of work on Thursday, Nov. 2, 2017,” he said.
