Governor Ifeanyi Okowa on Wednesday forwarded to the Delta State House of Assembly the second Commissioner nominee after the sack of two earlier.

The governor sent in the name of Mr. Emmanuel Chinye for screening and confirmation.

Okowa had earlier this month appointed Dr Mordi Ononye as Commissioner for Health after the sacked of former Health Commissioner Dr Azinge.

The Speaker, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori read the letter from the governor during plenary on Wednesday.

The letter read: “in the exercise of the power conferred on the Governor by Section 192 (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended, that the Governor wish to present Mr. Chinye Emmanuel for appointment as Honourable Commissioner and member of the Delta State Executive Council for their consideration and affirmation to enable him effect his appointment as required by the constitution”.

Consequently, the request from the governor was unanimously adopted through a voice vote and the Speaker directed that the nominee should submit 35 copies of his CVs to the Clerk within 24 hours for assessment and appear before the House on Tuesday, February 27, 3018 for screening.
