Abia Governor Recalls Suspended Chief Of Staff, Dissolves Cabinet
Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has announced the immediate recall of his Chief of Staff, Dr. Anthony CB Agbazuere.

The video which is believed to have been made in Agbazuere’s office showed him spraying naira notes on Ohanaemere also popularly described as ‘Indaboski’ as the latter dances.
In a statement on Saturday by Ikpeazu Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka, the governor also approved the immediate dissolution of the State Executive Council.
He directed that “all those affected by this dissolution are to handover all government properties in their possession, together with their handover notes, to their respective Permanent Secretaries.”
