Of the six commissioners, five served under Wike’s administration in the same capacity, while Woke was Wike’s Chief of Staff for eight years.

Their resignations were contained in separate letters to Governor Fubara.

On her part, Aguma of the Ministry of Social Welfare and Rehabilitation cited “personal” reasons for her resignation from the cabinet and wished the current administration well.

The Finance Commissioner, however, did not state why he pulled out of the cabinet.
