Isaac Kamalu quit his job as Commissioner of Finance for River State after Governor Simi Fubara moved him to the Ministry of Employment Generation and Economic Empowerment.
In a letter sent on Tuesday to Governor Fubura and the Secretary to the Government, Tammy Danagogo, Kamalu said this. He is currently the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and used to work for Nyesom Wike as the commissioner for Budget and Economics.
He said Fubara was lying about how much money Rivers State made on its own.

“In view of the above, I find it difficult to accept the redeployment; I do not accept it. I reject it and convey my immediate resignation as Commissioner and Member of the River State Executive Council with effect from the date of this letter”, the letter reads.
Meanwhile, it was reported that Zacchaeus Adangor, Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General of the State, had resigned, citing a similar problem.
The developments come months after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu brokered a peace pact between Fubara and Wike amid an untamed political faceoff between the pair.
