JUST-IN: Niger Gov Sacks Commissioners, Retains SSG, Others

Niger State governor, Mohammed Umaru Bago, has dissolved the State Executive Council (SEC).

The governor announced the decision during the Council meeting at the Council Chambers in Minna, the State capital, on Monday morning.

He appreciated the SEC members for the services they had so far rendered towards the development of the state and wished them the best in their future endeavours.

The governor, however, said he has retained the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff, and other principal officers in his office.
