Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State has sacked all political appointees who are the Senator Anyim's kinsmen from Ivo Local Government Area of the State.
This is coming on the heels Senator Anyim open letter to Umahi, which he copied President Muhammadu Buhari, and heads of security agencies.
In the letter, he alleged that Umahi was plotting to kill him, among other issues he raised.
A statement signed by Dr Ugbala Kenneth, the Secretary to Ebonyi State Government and Coordinating Commissioner, on Wednesday, said the sack was informed by the Governor's decision to ensure inclusiveness in governance.
Those affected by the sack are: All Senior Technical Assistants (STAs) and Technical Assistants (TAs) to the Governor; All Liaison Officers; and All Management Committee members from Ivo Local Government Area.
The statement directed them to handover all Government Property in their possession to the Secretary to the State Government and Coordinating Commissioner by the close of work today, 2nd December 2020.
Umahi had last Thursday sacked Coordinators of Ivo and Echiele Development Centres for allegedly refusing to sign a communiqué against Senator Pius Anyim.
Some of the Umahi's Appointees from Ivo who saw the handwriting on the wall, had resigned days ago, before the Wednesday's sledgehammer.
Kinsmen of former Governor Sam Egwu and Senator representing Ebonyi North who were appointees of Umahi's government had some days ago, suffered same fate as their Ivo counterparts.
Since Umahi officially defected to the APC last month, November, there has not been any love lost between him and some prominent leaders of the State, including the members of the National Assembly elected on the platform of the PDP who disavowed him.END//
