Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, had also announced the dissolution of the state executive council, during its valedictory session.
President Muhammadu Buhari, however, directed all ministers to remain in office until May 28.
Buhari said his decision to retain his cabinet ministers in the last three and half years in spite of pressures from some quarters is because of their unique skill, strength and leadership qualities.
