    The Rivers State House of Assembly on Wednesday asked the nine commissioners who earlier resigned their positions to ‘take a bow and go.’

    On Monday, the parliament led by Rt Hon Martin Amaewhule invited the commissioner-nominees for screening as part of the 8-point peace agenda signed by Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike following a meeting with President Bola Tinubu in Abuja.

    The nominees are: Zacchaeus Adangor, ⁠Dr. Jacobson Mbina, Dr. Gift Worlu, Mrs Inime Chinwenwo- Aguma, ⁠Engr. Chukwuemeka Woke.

    ⁠Others included Prof. Prince Chinedu Mmom, ⁠Dr. George-Kelly D. Alabo, ⁠Hon. Isaac Kamalu and Engr. Austin Ben Chioma.

    During plenary at the hallowed chamber in the Legislative Quarters, Off PH/Aba Expressway, Port Harcourt, the Speaker read the letter from Governor Siminalayi Fubara, requesting the screening and confirmation of the Commissioner nominees.

    The letter dated December 11, 2023 puts to rest any controversy surrounding whether or not the governor made the request

    In his reaction, the Majority Leader of the House, Hon Major Jack moved a motion that because the nominees have been screened before there’s no need to repeat the process as such they should take a bow and go.

    The motion was supported by the deputy speaker, Rt Hon Dumle Maol, hence the lawmakers’ decision for the commissioner-nominees to ‘take a bow and go.’
