Ebonyi State Governor, Francis Nwifuru, has lifted the one-month suspension imposed on 81 government officials for failing to attend a state function. 


This was announced in a statement signed on Tuesday in Abakiliki by the governor's Chief Press Secretary, Dr. Monday Uzor.


Recall that on July 28, Governor Nwifuru had announced the suspension of several commissioners, permanent secretaries, and other aides for absenteeism at a state function. 


The suspension drew diverse reactions across the country, with many terming it as "unnecessary".


The CPS stated that the governor has now directed the affected commissioners, Senior Special Assistants, Special Assistants, and permanent secretaries to resume official duties immediately.
