By Hon. Yakubu Kwanta, former Commissioner for Environment, for the position of Commissioner, citing alleged insubordination.
The suspension follows Kwanta’s failure to appear before the House Committee on Environment to defend the 2024 budget performance of his former ministry.
This move has sparked controversy, as Kwanta’s absence was seen as a significant violation of legislative protocol.
Reports indicate that the committee had expected him to provide insights into his ministry’s financial management and budget execution during his tenure.
The suspension has raised questions about the relationship between the executive and the legislative body in the state.
Kwanta’s confirmation for the new commissioner role now hangs in the balance, pending further developments.
