There are indications that a cold war is brewing between Governor Ifeanyi Okowa and his Deputy Barrister Kingsley Outaro.

According to a source who spoke to this medium said; “this has not gone down well with the Deputy Governor, Barrister Kingsley Otuaro who feels that he has some persons to reward through appointments, and as such should have been allowed  to appoint his own aides or nominates those who he wants to work with.”
