He said this was deliberate because the government was looking for people with integrity, passion and commitment to serve the people of Anambra State.
The Governor further reminded the Commissioners to always the remember the weight demands of the oaths they have taken to serve Anambra people.
He advised them to keep’ an eye on the ball’ and key-in into the ‘Soludo Solution, People’s Manifesto’, which according to the Governor, is the social contract the government has with the good people of Anambra State.
He noted that their appointment is a call to duty because the challenges are humongous. At the same time he challenged them to make a difference in the various Ministries assigned to them by working harmoniously with others.
