Former commissioners, special advisers and other political appointees, who served in the administration of Capt. Idris Wada have been given till Feb. 5 to return government vehicles in their possession.

The Transport Officer of Kogi, Mrs Laraba Okedi, in a statement on Wednesday in Lokoja said that the order also affected other categories of political appointees, including members of boards and agencies.

Apart from the vehicles, Okedi said that the former political office holders should immediately return other government property in their possession.
