A member of the Rivers state executive council, Marshal Uwom, who was Commissioner for Housing, on Monday made his resignation public claiming his decision followed the decision of the governor, Rotimi Amaechi to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
According to Uwom,“Series of recent developments, especially the decision of my boss, Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, to dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), for the All Progressives Congress, formed my decision to leave the cabinet.
“I am a man that fears God and I am also principled too. I belong to the PDP and cannot continue to remain in the cabinet when my principal has left to join another party,” he said.
Contrary to his claim, Nigeriaireporter can exclusively reveal that Uwom was forced to resign over alleged corruption. The ex commissioner insiders informed is a very corrupt cabinet member, and each time he is asked to defend himself, he usually have nothing to say,the situation made the Governor ask him to tender a letter of resignation which he suddenly turned around to make it look like he is resigning on principle.Dr. Tammy too was involved in corrupt acts and he was removed and he was quiet about it.
