Benue Assembly Grants Alia's Petition to Appoint Additional Ten Advisors
Governor Alia Expands Advisory Team and Reinstates Suspended Officials in Benue State
In a significant move, Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has received approval from the Benue State House of Assembly to appoint 10 additional Special Advisers. This expansion of the advisory team is aimed at consolidating the state's development agenda and improving service delivery.
The governor has also lifted the suspensions placed on Maxwell Ogiri, Executive Chairman of Otukpo Local Government Area, Grace Adagba, Chairman of the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), and Michael Uper, Executive Secretary of the Benue State Lottery Commission. The reinstatement of these officials was prompted by recent leadership changes in the House.
In a letter seeking the lawmakers' consent, Governor Alia emphasised his respect for the constitutional roles of the legislature and his commitment to working harmoniously with all arms of government. The governor is expected to unveil the names of the new Special Advisers in the coming days, but specific names have not been disclosed yet.
The reinstated officials have been charged to recommit themselves to their duties and uphold transparency in service. No fresh round of appointments to strategic offices or statutory boards was announced in the statement.
Governor Alia has reiterated his administration's resolve to continue pursuing peace, progress, and good governance in Benue State. The governor's actions demonstrate his commitment to ensuring that the state is well-governed and that key positions are filled with capable individuals who can provide expert counsel in tackling pressing issues in governance.
It is worth noting that no prior context was provided about the tension, kidnapping, political party shifts, assembly reshuffles, or petitions mentioned in suggested article titles. The Benue State House of Assembly has rescinded its decision to suspend Ogiri, Adagba, and Uper, and the governor has directed the immediate reinstatement of the affected officials in compliance with the House's latest resolution.
The new approvals have given Governor Alia the green light to further broaden his team. The governor's actions underscore his commitment to good governance and his determination to ensure that Benue State continues to progress and thrive.
