Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State has suspended the Commissioner for Lands and Survey, Hon. Emmanuel Uguru and his Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Education, Dr Obianuju Alo on a one-month working suspension for negligence and dereliction of duty.
The governor gave the order in a statement signed by Secretary to the State Government and coordinating Commissioner, Dr Kenneth Ugbala on Friday.

David Nweze Umahi, FNSE, FNATE, the Commissioner for Lands and Survey, Chief Emmanuel Uguru and SSA to Governor on Education, Dr Obianuju Alo are hereby directed to proceed on one-month working suspension, with immediate effect.
