Dr. Christian Madubuko, formerly the Commissioner for Transport is now the Commissioner for Culture, Diaspora and indigenous Artwork.
While congratulating the commissioners on their new portfolio, the Governor said the new appointments takes effect immediately.
A government source described the shakeup as expected and long overdue.
“This is indeed a welcome development. Some of us had expected this reshufflement before now because some of the Commissioners have not demonstrated capacity in their various potfolios.
“Infact, I had expected the Governor to have dropped some of the commissioners because of incompetence and may likely do that before the end of his administration.”
