Barely 24 hours after his swearing-in for a second term, the Governor of Anambra State, Chukwuma Soludo, has directed all political appointees to hand over their duties with immediate effect.
The directive was conveyed in an official circular issued on March 18, 2026, by the Office of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), instructing affected appointees to transfer responsibilities to Permanent Secretaries or, in their absence, the most senior civil servant in their respective Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
According to the memo, the handover is to be completed on or before the close of work on the same day, pending the constitution of a new cabinet.
