Presidential spokesperson Reuben
Abati a few hours ago announced the removal of SURE-P boss, General Martin
Luther Agwai, and now there are reports that he was sacked for attending former
president Obasanjo’s birthday event last week.
According to Premium Times reports General Agwai was fired for flouting a presidential instruction that no government official or member of the ruling PDP, should attend the birthday event of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, last week.

Our sources said when informed of the president’s warning, General
Agwai, who climbed to the pinnacle of his career under the Obasanjo
administration, said he will go ahead and attend the function, more so, in view
of the president’s directive. Our sources said for daring the president, it was
clear General Agwai would be fired.
One source said it appears General Agwai was informed ahead of the
announcement of his removal Tuesday, as the former defence chief arrived early
at the SURE-P office to pack his belongings.
General Agwai himself replaced Dr.Christopher Kolade, who left office
after criticising the president
