President
Jonathan has fired Martin-Luther Agwai as the head of SURE-P. Agwai was appointed by President Jonathan to
head the department created by the government to deploy saved fuel subsidy
money for the provision of critical infrastructure and jobs.
However, President
Jonathan announced this today through a statement released by his spokesperson,
Reuben Abati. The statement announced that Ishaya Dare Akau replaces Mr Agwai
with immediate effect.
Premium
Times however has a different angle to this claiming that Mr Agwai was fired
for flouting a presidential instruction that no government official or member
of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, should attend the birthday event of
former President Olusegun Obasanjo, last week,in which Mr Agwai attended.
