Ernest Attah was
Military Governor of
Cross River State,
Nigeria, between December 1989 and January 1992 during the military regime of General
Ibrahim Babangida.
When he assumed office he found so many problems with the state finances that he dissolved the entire state cabinet and set up two panels of inquiry headed by high court judges Emmanuel Effanga and Dorothy Nsa Eyamba-Idem to probe the administration of his predecessor
Eben Ibim Princewill.
