Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State has reshuffled his cabinet and sworn in 13 commissioners barely five months to the end of his administration.<\/p>\n

Following the development, the former Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Mr Eric Anderson, was appointed the Commissioner for Information and Orientation, while the former Director-General, Primary Healthcare Development Agency, Dr. Janet Ekpenyong, was appointed the Commissioner for Health.<\/p>\n

Also, the governor<\/a> appointed Alhaji Adamu Musa from Kano State as the Commissioner for Inter-governmental Affairs.<\/p>\n

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the new commissioners filled vacancies created by the exit of their former occupants, who left either to vie for elective offices or as a result of the governor\u2019s defection to the All Progressives Congress.<\/p>\n

In a speech at the swearing-in in Calabar on Tuesday, Ayade urged the new commissioners to work assiduously to ensure that his administration finished strong.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour coming on board is not by accident. You have been carefully selected based on your integrity and competence to bring your wealth of experience to bear on our administration.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour jobs are all cut out for you, I expect that you make our dear state proud,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Responding on behalf of others, Ekpenyong, who replaced Dr Betta Edu, the APC National Woman Leader, thanked the governor for the appointment.<\/p>\n

She said that finding them worthy to join the governor in transforming the state was a step in the right direction for the betterment of the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cI pledge that my colleagues and I will represent you well in our various ministries. We will work in line with your vision and plan for the state,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
