Chukwuma Soludo, the freshly sworn-in Governor of Anambra State, has vowed to choose his commissioners within the following week.
There is no time to spend, according to the former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), who added that he had already begun working.
On Thursday, he stated this during his inaugural speech at the Government House in Agu-Awka, Awka.
The governor also stated that he would name some of the administration’s top officials and meet with the Anambra State Security Council.
Soludo said he’ll meet with the permanent secretaries as well as his Strategy, Execution, and Evaluation team.
He said, “Today is my first day at work. I just reported for duty and will work for at least eight hours. We had more than a month since the election to celebrate our historic victory. Now is the time to work, and there is no minute or kobo to waste in fanfare.
“In a few minutes, I will announce some of the principal officers of the administration, and commence with serious meetings of the Anambra State Security Council, followed by a meeting with the permanent secretaries, a meeting on Okpoko, and with my Strategy, Execution and Evaluation team.
“Within the next one week, the list of commissioners will be laid before the House of Assembly.”
