Under the new arrangement, the Commissioner for Women Affairs, Community and Social Development, Princess Pat Ajudua, will temporarily supervise the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Community Support Services and Girl Child Development pending further directives from the government.
Similarly, the Commissioner for Housing, Godknows Angele, has been directed to oversee the Ministry of Youth Development with immediate effect.
This is contained in a statement by the Delta State Commissioner for Works (Rural Roads) and Public Information, Mr. Charles Aniagwu.

Governor Oborevwori, the statement added, commended the former commissioners for their contributions and dedicated service to the state, while wishing them success in their future political pursuits.
The government noted that the new supervisory appointments take immediate effect pending further announcements.
