Nnam was last month summoned by the state house of assembly following petitions by members of the public over messy land grabbing in the ministry.

It was gathered that following the summons, the lawmakers recommended for his sack to the governor.

A source told our correspondent, “I think he got wind of our recommendation to the governor for his sack. That’s why he rushed to send that letter.

“It is a common knowledge that most people who bought lands here in Enugu metropolis had their lands reallocated to other persons by the ministry. And we have overwhelming evidence that gave credence to our recommendation to the governor”.
