Gov. Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau has sacked six of his appointees and suspended one.

Mr Samuel Jatau, the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday in Jos.

Jatau said that the move was part of the government’s efforts towards repositioning it for greater efficiency and effective service delivery.

The affected officials included Mr Timothy Golu, the Special Adviser to the governor on Strategic Communication; Mr Fom Gwottson, the Liaison Officer, Jos South; Mr Nanbol Rimvyat and Mr Nannim Langyi, the Liaison Officers, Langtang North.

Others were Mr Paul Datugum and Nimchat Rims, the Liaison Officers for Qua’an Pan and Langtang South, respectively.

Similarly, the governor suspended Mr Johnbull Shekarau, the Chairman, House of Assembly Service Commission in the state, over conduct that negates the standards of his office.

The SSG directed the affected officials to handover all government properties in their possession to the appropriate quarters.

Jatau said that the governor, who thanked them for their contribution to his administration, wished the affected persons success in their future endeavours. (NAN)
