Governor Wike Sacks Commissioner For Health

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has sacked his Commissioner for Health Prof. Princewill Chike.

It was gathered that the Health Commissioner was sacked because he accepted to host the preliminary session of Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria, MDCN, in Port Harcourt without the approval of the state government.

The Governor made the announcement when he received in audience the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria, Prof. Abba Wasiri Hassan at the Government House, Port Harcourt.

Gov. Wike described the decision of the Commissioner as most embarrassing.

He said the state government did not request to host the MDCN preliminary session and wondered why the Health commissioner will decide to host the event at the same time when the State government is commissioning and flagging off projects.

“Frankly speaking, I have never seen an embarrassment like this in my life. Everybody knows that it is not my nature to bring people and you cannot attend to them or host. So, whoever has done this will suffer for it”.
