Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike on Valentine Day lifted the
suspension of the State Finance Commissioner, Dr Magnus Kpakol and the
State Accountant-General, Sir Abere Dagogo.
Addressing Rivers State public servants and political leaders during a
Special Valentine Couples Night organised by his wife, Justice
Eberechi Suzzette Nyesom-Wike at the Government House, Port Harcourt,
Governor Wike said the suspension was lifted in deference to the
interventions by different political leaders and as a show of love
during the valentine.
Governor Wike charged political appointees to differentiate between
friendship and governance in the discharge of their respective
functions.
He said:
"Governance is a serious business. It is not friendship. When it comes to governance I won't know friendship.
"I will lift the suspension on the Finance Commissioner and the
Accountant-General, but they must henceforth take their functions
seriously. Next time, I will not take into consideration the please
of political stakeholders".
He advised all political appointees to take their responsibilities
seriously as his administration must succeed in the delivery of
projects contained in his development blueprint.
