Governor of Anambra State, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has relieved the state Commissioner for Information, Sir Paul Nwosu, of his duties.
Sources close to the embattled commissioner whose job has been on the line because of alleged poor performance, claimed that he resigned and was not sacked.
According to a source, the commissioner have already dusted his table and moved on.
He said: “As I speak to you, Mr Paul Nwosu has packed his bag, and we’re just waiting for the news to be announced by the Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Christian Aburime.”
However, the governor’s Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, in a mobile phone conversation said that he is not aware of Nwosu’s sack but promised to get back to the media if anything like that happens.
As at the time of filing this report, it was not yet clear if the commissioner would be redeployed to another ministry.
Meanwhile, feelers have it that Dr. Law Mefor, a veteran communications strategist and a notable All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) member, has been lined up as a replacement. (NEWS EXPRESS)
