Ikpeazu dissolves special advisers, others
The Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu, late Monday dissolved his body of aides, which include special advisers, senior special assistants and others.
The announcement was contained in a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Chris Ezem.
According to the statement, the dissolution was with immediate effect, however, no reasons were given for the dissolution.
It would be recalled that on December 14, 2021, Ikpeazu dissolved his body of aides and subsequently appointed new ones early in 2022 which was now dissolved.
Prior to this dissolution, it was impossible to determine the number of aides the governor parades as their appointment was ongoing before the dissolution.
An unconfirmed source close to the Government House Umuahia placed the number to be over 300.
New aides are expected to be appointed before December 31, 2022 or early 2023 as foot soldiers to be used for 2023 general elections in the state
