Professor Babagana Umara Zulum has dissolved the Borno State Executive Council, relieving all Commissioners of their duties with immediate effect.
The move is intended to allow outgoing officials to pursue political ambitions ahead of the 2027 general elections and resets the cabinet for potential new appointments.
Governor Zulum has instructed all former Commissioners to handover ministry affairs to Permanent Secretaries by April 3, 2026, ensuring continuity of governance.
Observers see the dissolution as part of early political realignments in Borno State, setting the stage for fresh energy and strategic positioning ahead of the elections.
