Defection: Tanko Al-Makura Sacks 9 Commissioners & 2 Aides by onexile: 12:09pm On Jul 31, 2018
It does appear Governor Tanko Almakura had become jettery of planned defection by aggrieved APC stalwarts in the state

Lafia – Gov. Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa State has announced a major cabinet shakeup in which nine Commissioners and two Special Advisers lost their jobs.
Umaru Al-Makura

This is contained in a statement signed by Alhaji Mohammed Abdullahi, the Secretary to the State Government in Lafia.

Abdullahi said the cabinet reshuffle took immediate effect. However, he explained that the decision was to enable the affected persons focus on their political aspirations in the 2019 general elections and for others to pursue their professional/career goals.

The statement listed the affected commissioners as Abdulhamid Kwarra of Ministry of Environment and Solid Minerals; Gabriel Aka’Ka, Ministry of Water Resources and Rural Development, and Mary Enwongulu of Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.

Also affected were Bamaiyi Anagba, Ministry of Youth and Sports Development; Dr Daniel Iya, Health; Yusuf Shehu Usman of Information, Culture and Tourism, as well as Sonny Agassi of Lands and Physical Planning.

Others include Mr Mohammed Yahaya of Ministry of Works, Housing and Transport; and Tanko Zubair of Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives. The statement also said that six commissioners were retained. It added that Mr Jamil Zakari of Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources was redeployed to the Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism.

The Special Advisers to the governor affected by the exercise were Hajarat Ibrahim Danyaro on Gender Relations, Rehabilitation and Disabilities; and Ado Dauda Mohammed on Community Based Relations/Conflict Resolution and Management.
The statement further revealed that the erstwhile Special Adviser to the governor on Security, retired Lt.-Gen. Mohammed Adeka, would henceforth handle Community Based Relations/Conflict Resolution and Management.

“Meanwhile, Governor Umaru Al-Makura, on behalf of all the people of Nasarawa State profoundly thank the outgoing commissioners and special advisers for their services and wishes them success in their future endeavours,” the government said. (NAN)

Common Sense, you don't allow defectors in your government.

Why Did Boris Johnson resign as UK Foreign Minister?

He disagreed with the policies of the Prime Minister and had to go.

And Buhari /Oshiomole/APC keep boasting that defection doesn't make them lose sleep?

Watch out, you can't hear Bola Tinubu making such a political slander.
It shows the man is more politically experienced than the likes of Buhari /Oshiomole and that mouth-leaking lady who is Buhari's Special Assistant.
