President Goodluck Jonathan has fired Martin-Luther Agwai as the head of SURE-P. Mr. 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.President Jonathan however 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, which Mr Agwai attended.
