He emphasised the need to complete all the transition processes before then.

“All the commissioners affected by the changes are directed to hand over their responsibilities between Monday, December 16, and Tuesday, December 17, 2024,” he said.

The governor urged the state executive council members to redouble their efforts and uphold a strong spirit of teamwork, dedication and commitment to supporting his administration in serving the people of the state.
