| Prof Yemi Osinbajo - Nigeria's Vice President |
Reports have it that 35 aides to the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo have allegedly been sacked by the SGF, Boss Mustapha while President Buhari is away in the UK. News has it that effort by the VP to delay this action had proven abortive.
It is not clear why these aides were sacked but information reaching us suggests the Presidency thinks Osinbajo has more Aides than the President himself and there needed to be a cut down. It is said that the VP had lobbied to delay the sack so he could discuss the matter with the President but the SGF has gone ahead to effect the sack.
According to Garba Shehu, Buhari's Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, “The SGF has responsibility for the issuance of letters of appointment, and where the need arises, sack letters as well.”
However, an aide in the Office of the SGF, Willie Bassey, said he was not aware of the sack: “I am not aware of any letter. I am hearing such thing from you for the first time. I am not aware of it.”
