The Plateau state House of Assembly has approved the request by Governor Simon Lalong to appoint 15 special advisers to serve in his government.
The approval followed a communication from the governor Wednesday seeking the approval of the assembly to appoint 15 special advisers.
The governor said that the governor’s request was in accordance with section 196 Sub-section 2 of the 1999 constitution as amended.
“In my bid and determination to form a formidable team that will help me achieve my mandate, I hereby seek the approval of the house to appoint 15 Special Advisers to serve in my government,’’ he said.
The house, thereafter, approved the governor’s request through a voice vote.(NAN)
