Dr. George Nwaeke, the Head of Civil Service in Rivers State, has resigned from his position. The announcement was made by the state’s sole administrator, Vice Admiral (retired) Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, who expressed gratitude for Nwaeke’s service and wished him well in future endeavors.
To ensure continuity in the state’s civil service operations, Dr. Iyingi Brown, previously the Permanent Secretary for Welfare in the Office of the Head of Service, has been appointed as the acting Head of Service until a permanent appointment is made.
Additionally, Vice Admiral Ibas has appointed Professor Ibibia Lucky Worika as the new Secretary to the State Government (SSG). This decision follows a thorough evaluation of Worika’s credentials and extensive experience. The appointment is expected to bring stability to the state’s administrative structure, especially amid the current political uncertainty.
The recent changes in leadership come at a critical time for Rivers State, which has witnessed heightened political tensions in recent months. With these appointments, the sole administrator aims to ensure smooth governance and restore confidence in the state’s public service. Observers are keenly watching how these new officials will navigate the ongoing challenges and implement necessary reforms.
