In a press statement by his chief press secretary/special adviser on media and publicity, Christian Ita, the governor said the planned cabinet reshuffle would help the government map out better strategies to move the state forward and to pave way for those seeking political positions to focus on the pursuit of their ambition.

Ayade also urged appointees seeking political positions, but still serving in his administration, to tender their resignation letters before 12noon on Thursday.
