Chukwu is the daughter of former Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, who governed under the PDP from 2007 to 2015 but is now a member of the APC
Despite their different party affiliations, he is known to have a cordial relationship with Governor Mbah.
The second resignation came from Aka Eze, the former Commissioner for Information, who left his role to contest in the Udenu Local Government election, which he later won.
Following the exits, Governor Mbah nominated six new individuals for commissioner roles: Osita Okoh, Ben Collins Ndu Jr., Samuel Ogbu-Nwobodo, Franklin Ogbonna, and two professors – Benedeth Okoli and George Ugwu.
