Government functionaries in Imo State are currently in fears, following the unexpected suspension of the Honourable Commissioner For Lands, Survey and Physical Planning, Hon Noble Atulegwu and also the General Manager Imo Housing Corporation, Hon Mbakwe Obi Jnr.
Their suspension was announced by the secretary to the State government, Mr Cosmas Iwu on Thursday, 23 Nov, few days after Imo Governorship election.
The announcement read partly; “Imo State Governor Special Announcement
“The Governor of Imo State, His Excellency, Senator Hope Uzodimma has approved the immediate suspension from the office of Hon Commissioner for Lands, Survey and Physical Planning, Hon Noble Atulegwu.
“His Excellency has similarly approved the immediate suspension from office of the SA/GM Imo Housing Corporation,Hon Mbakwe Obi Jnr.
