Seven new commissioners and a Special Adviser have been formally sworn in to join the state’s Executive Council.

At the ceremony in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom state capital, South South Nigeria, Governor Udom Emmanuel charged them to put in their best as the times are challenging.

He says that bringing in new Exco members is to reengineer the wheel of governance.

He asked them to rise up to the occasion.

The governor also admonished them against using their positions to serve personal interests.
