Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, has suspended the state Commissioner for Lands, Survey and Physical Planning, Noble Atulegwu.
Uzodimma also suspended his Special Adviser and General Manager of the Imo State Housing Cooperation, Mbakwe Obi.

Iwu noted that the suspension of the commissioner and the special adviser was with immediate effect.

He stated: “The Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodimma, has approved the immediate suspension from the office of the Commissioner for Lands, Survey and Physical Planning, Noble Atulegwu.
“His Excellency has similarly approved the immediate suspension from office of the SA/GM Imo Housing Corporation, Mbakwe Obi.”
Though the SSG did not disclose the reason for the suspension of the officials, Atulegwu had been having issues with many communities in Imo State over the alleged takeover of their family and communal lands.
Many communities later protested and asked the governor to relieve him of his duty.
