Rivers State Commissioner of Finance, Isaac Kamalu has resigned.
He resigned after Governor Simi Fubara transferred him to the Employment Generation and Economic Empowerment Ministry.
Recall that Kamalu had served as commissioner for Budget and Economics under former Nyesom Wike and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.
In a letter to Governor Fubura and the Secretary to the Government, Tammy Danagogo, accused Fubara of lying about the internally generated revenue of Rivers State.
“In view of the above, I find it difficult to accept the redeployment; I do not accept it. I reject it and convey my immediate resignation as Commissioner and Member of the River State Executive Council with effect from the date of this letter”, the letter reads.
Zacchaeus Adangor, Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General of the State, had resigned, citing a similar issue.
