Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue has recalled the suspended attorney general and commissioner for justice and public order, Fidelis Mnyim.
Mr Alia announced the reinstatement on Monday in Makurdi during the state executive council meeting he presided over.
The attorney general was suspended on October 23.
He was suspended for his unilateral decision to include Benue as a party in the suit challenging the legality of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).
Tersoo Kula, the chief press secretary to the governor, briefed journalists after the meeting.
Mr Kula said Mr Mnyim was recalled from his suspension after he withdrew the state from the list of states seeking the constitutionality of the laws establishing the two anti-graft agencies.
He said the commissioner met the requirements for his reinstatement.
