The Governor of Ebonyi State chief Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru has lifted the suspension of 81 government officials in the State.
This was contained in a statement signed and made available to journalists on Tuesday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Monday Uzor in Abakaliki.
According to the press statement, the governor directed the commissioners, senior special assistants, special assistants, and permanent secretaries who were suspended on the 28th of July, 2025, to resume official duties immediately.
Recall that the Governor had last month suspended the government officials for failing to attend an important government function.
The commissioners and other political appointees were asked to proceed on a one-month working suspension with immediate effect, without salary payment.
Governor Nwifuru also directed that the affected commissioners and other political appointees are prohibited from signing any official document within one month of their working suspension.
