Gov Bello ‘Eased Out’ Political Appointees Not Sack– Fanwo
The Director General, Media and Publicity to Kogi State Governor, Kingsley Fanwo has said Governor Yahaya Bello did not sack his appointees, saying he only 'eased out' the political office holders as part of the preparation for the inauguration.
Fanwwo who made this known on Monday in Lokoja, said it is harsh to use the word sack as the relieved appointees did not do anything wrong.
He said, "The Governor did not sack them. Sack is a harsh word especially as the relieved office holders did not commit any crime. The Governor only relieved them of their offices as a part of the transition process. The next administration will kick off in January 27, 2020, and there is need to ‘clear the table’ before that administration kicks off.
"The Governor is eternally grateful for the selfless and innovative services rendered by the outgoing office holders. They will always be in his thoughts. It has been an eventful tenure and the Governor is conscious of the need to maintain the momentum and do more in line with his electioneering campaign promises to the people of the state", he said.
