Governor Siminalayi Fubara has inaugurated a fresh set of commissioners into his cabinet, describing their recent screening as one of the most intense in the state's history.
He urged the new officials to provide their absolute best to the state, as their "fitness" for the job has already been tested.
In Nigeria, "screening" is like a job interview where lawmakers check a nominee's background and knowledge before they can join the government.
Fubara stated that the "rigorous" nature of the screening served as the perfect training for the commissioners to understand their specific duties.
The Governor told the new team that he expects nothing less than excellence, as they have already survived a difficult confirmation process.
The event was held at the Government House, where the Chief Registrar administered the legal oaths to make their appointments official.
