Reverend Father Hyacinth Alia, the Governor of Benue State, has sanctioned the appointment of Mrs. Theresa Nyitse as the Acting Accountant General for the state.
The announcement of Nyitse’s appointment has become a subject of controversy, with critics accusing the governor of favoritism towards his Tiv tribe. This has sparked a heated debate over alleged nepotism in the governor’s decision-making.
According to Tersoo Kula, Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, the appointment was formalized in a statement released on Wednesday. The statement revealed that the appointment would be effective immediately. The letter confirming the appointment was signed by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Prof. Joseph Alakali.
Prior to her new role, Mrs. Theresa Nyitse had served as an Accountant in the Central Accounts of the Office of the Accountant General, Benue State. She will be taking over from Mr. Agwaza Iorkpiligh, who previously held the position of Accountant General of the state.
As Mrs. Nyitse assumes her new responsibilities, concerns over potential nepotism in the appointment process continue to be a point of contention for many within the state. The debate surrounding the decision remains ongoing, with different stakeholders expressing varying opinions on the matter.
