Apparently in a bid to inject fresh blood that would pave way for his re-election in 2019,  Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong has sacked all his commissioners.

In a statement released Thursday morning and signed by the Director of Press and Public Affairs, Samuel Nanle, Governor Lalong thanked the commissioners for their contributions and immense service to the state and directed that they hand over to the permanent secretaries in their respective ministries.

“The Governor expresses his sincere appreciation to the Honourable Commissioners for their selfless service and immense contributions in delivering to the people of Plateau State, the dividends of democracy and in engendering hope in the All Progressives Congress-led administration in the state.

“The Executive Governor while wishing the Commissioners the best in their future endeavours assures them that as stakeholders in the Plateau Project, their wealth of experience would continuously be relied upon in building the Plateau of our dream.

“He therefore, calls on them not to relent in availing their services when called upon in the future to serve the state. The Honourable Commissioners are to hand over to Permanent Secretaries in their respective ministries,” the statement read.
