Oga Jona dey vex, him just dey sack and appoint people anyhow before his return to Otueke on May 29.
President Jonathan had sacked the beautiful Executive Secretary of the Petroleum Equalization Fund (PEF), Sharon Kasali. Her unceremonious employment termination came just days after SR exposed her for taking an unlawful third term in that position.
Mrs. Kasali’s tenure at PEF was marked by tension and all sorts of drama, which was only exacerbated once she refused to leave after her second term.
A letter from the Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO) addressed to Mrs. Kasali said, “we have highlighted [previously] problems ranging from unnecessary delays and non-payment of bridging and transport claims to total sensitivity to plight of our members in the implementation project.”
The PEF is responsible for equalizing the price of petroleum for transportation between coastal and interior regions of Nigeria.
According to government regulations, no director of parastatal head may stay in the same position for more than two terms. However, Mrs. Kasali believed that her office was exempt from such a rule.
The press release from Jonathan’s office did not explain to cause of Sharon Kasali’s termination and simply described the qualifications of incoming PEF Executive Secretary, Asabe Ahmed.
The same press release announced that Ernest Nwapa from the Nigerian Content Management Development Board (NCDMB) was also sacked and will be replaced by Denzil Kentebe.
