In the Federal Republic of Nigeria, state executive councils (informally known as "cabinets") are the highest formal governmental body in state governments headed by governors.
Functions
The executive council is responsible for advising and assisting the governor in the performance of their official duties. As all of its members excluding the deputy governor are appointed by the governor, individuals who have been appointed to serve in the council may also be dismissed or reappointed to other posts at the governor's discretion. The entire council may also be dissolved if the governor wishes for a complete reshuffle or a motion of no confidence in the governor is passed.
General structure
It usually (depending on the state) consists of the governor, the Deputy Governor, Secretary to the State Government, Chief of Staff, head of the State Civil Service, commissioners who preside over ministerial departments, along with the special aides and advisers to the governor and their deputies. The
Governor designates duties to commissioners, who are in turn assigned portfolios within their areas of responsibility.
