#HNNHealth Nigeria's Dynamic Health Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu who contained #EBOLA here RESIGNS to pursue his ambition to become Governor

Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu

Seven ministers in President Goodluck Jonathan’s cabinet have resigned their positions.

Those who resigned are Ministers of Information, Labaran Maku; Trade and Industry, Samuel Ortom; State for Education, Nyesom Wike; and State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro.

Others are Ministers of Labour, Emeka Wogu; Health, Onyebuchi Chukwu; State for Niger Delta, Dairus Ishaku.

The ministers quit their posts to pursue their political ambitions, the government said.

The ministers, whose departure had long been expected, will contest gubernatorial elections in their respective states.

#HNNHealth wishes Minister Chukwu good luck in the contest in Ebonyi state. He did an absolutely good job with the Ebola outbreak containment. HNNAfrica commended him in my NTA article as I worked close to Health NG in disseminating information out thru social media.
