Sale Mamman had in a terse press release announced the sacking of<br \/>\nthe embattled MD\/CEO. Two weeks after the removal and following intense<br \/>\nand sustained lobbying by Dr. Amobi, her removal was reversed by the<br \/>\nSecretary to the Government of the Federation Mr. Boss Mustapha.<\/p>\n<p>A similar scenario seems to be playing out in this latest dismissal. The<br \/>\nMinister of Power had on June 15, 2020, through a press release signed<br \/>\nby his Special Adviser on Media Aaron Artimas announced the sack of the<br \/>\nembattled MD. The announcement also conveyed the approval of the<br \/>\nPresident for the appointment of Dr. Nnaemeka Ewelukwa as the new MD\/CEO<br \/>\nwith immediate effect. Dr. Amobi who had a month to go on her tenure was<br \/>\ndirected to proceed on her terminal\/outstanding leave.<\/p>\n<p>Curiously, on June 16, 2020, a memo emanated from the Federal Ministry<br \/>\nof Finance (the Minister of Finance is the Chairman of NBET&#8217;s Board of<br \/>\nDirectors) signed by the Permanent Secretary Dr. Mahmoud Isa-Dutse<br \/>\nconfirming the sacking of Dr. Amobi and the appointment of Dr. Ewelukwa<br \/>\nto the position of MD\/CEO of NBET. However, a twist was introduced in<br \/>\nthe matter, when the memo stated that &#8220;The President has approved that<br \/>\nyou serve out your tenure at the completion of which you should hand<br \/>\nover to Dr. Nnaemeka Ewelukwa who is to take over from you as the<br \/>\nMD\/CEO. Your appointment which took effect from 25th July 2016 for four<br \/>\nyears is to end on 24th July 2020&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>It is this letter from the Ministry of Finance that is at the center of<br \/>\nthe controversy. The embattled MD has latched on to this letter as an<br \/>\nexcuse to dig in and has refused to hand over to the new MD. Our sources<br \/>\nat the Office of the Head of Service expressed surprise at the sit-tight<br \/>\nbehaviour of the out-going MD. According to our source, best practices<br \/>\ndemand that since a substantive MD has been appointed to take over from<br \/>\nher, the outgoing MD should have used the remaining one month of her<br \/>\ntenure as her terminal\/outstanding leave.<\/p>\n<p>Echoing the position of senior technocrats in the Office of Head of the<br \/>\nCivil Service, the Special Adviser Media to the Minister of Power, Aaron<br \/>\nArtimas in an interview with the Daily Trust Newspaper queried the power<br \/>\nof the Minister of Finance to authorize the continued stay in office of<br \/>\nthe embattled MD who has been indicted for corruption. In an exasperated<br \/>\ntone, he asked &#8220;How can the Ministry of Finance under Mrs. Zainab Ahmed<br \/>\nsay she should continue to stay? Buhari in the letter from the Chief of<br \/>\nStaff approved Ewelukwa as the substantive MD of NBET, not in an acting<br \/>\ncapacity. And there is no way there will be two heads of an agency at a<br \/>\ntime&#8221;. Mr. Artimas further asked, &#8220;How can she stay when her successor<br \/>\nhas been appointed in a substantive position?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite the raised eyebrows about her refusal to vacate for her<br \/>\nsuccessor, Dr. Amobi is still occupying the office of the MD\/CEO and in<br \/>\na replay of her earlier sacking, she is desperately doing all she can to<br \/>\nreverse the presidential sack order.<\/p>\n<p>NBET staff was alarmed when she was overheard on the phone frantically<br \/>\nspeaking with a powerful Minister perceived to be close to the<br \/>\nPresident. The said Minister, who was flown out of the country while the<br \/>\ndomestic\/international flights were banned by the federal government is<br \/>\nreported to be facing severe health challenges. In the telephone<br \/>\nconversation, she was frantically pleading with the Minister to<br \/>\nintervene in any manner possible to save her job. Our source did not<br \/>\nhear what the Minister said to her in response but her countenance after<br \/>\nthe call didn&#8217;t portray that she received a positive response.<\/p>\n<p>The embattled MD is also trying to use her media consultants to throw<br \/>\nmud on the new MD\/CEO. She has spent the better part of the week<br \/>\ncompiling a dossier of negative things about Dr. Ewelukwa, which she<br \/>\nintends to release to the media within the coming week. The plan is to<br \/>\ntar him with false, scurrilous and unfounded allegations that may<br \/>\nperhaps make the government have a rethink on his appointment.<\/p>\n<p>She is also applying the same tactics with other members of NBET senior<br \/>\nmanagement who have been at loggerhead with her over her high-handedness<br \/>\nand penchant for corrupt practices. She has compiled a list of<br \/>\nallegations of misconduct against virtually all members of management.<br \/>\nThe documents are being circulated to Board members in advance of an<br \/>\ninaugural Board meeting slated for Monday 22nd June 2020 despite the<br \/>\nreconstitution of the board since August 2018. Our source at NBET said<br \/>\nthat the entire staff is looking at her with contempt and pity.<br \/>\nAccording to the source, it shows her level of depravity that on the eve<br \/>\nof her departure after her inglorious tenure, her priority presentation<br \/>\nto the Board at its inaugural meeting are scurrilous documents making<br \/>\nall sorts of allegations against her entire senior management staff.<\/p>\n<p>Sources at NBET told our correspondent that on her appointment as MD of<br \/>\nNBET in July 2016, Dr. Amobi met an efficient company with a<br \/>\nwell-motivated staff. There were nine senior management staff members.<br \/>\nDr. Amobi, had issues with ALL of them. Starting with Waziri Bintube<br \/>\n(the Chief Finance Officer) and Sambo Abdullahi (the Chief Internal<br \/>\nAuditor) whom she unlawfully stopped payment of their salaries for over<br \/>\ntwo years running. Sambo, after exhausting all administrative remedies,<br \/>\ntook Dr. Amobi and NBET to court for her unlawful stoppage of his<br \/>\nsalaries despite the fact that he is still a staff of NBET to date. The<br \/>\ncourt gave judgment in his favor and berated Dr. Amobi for acting<br \/>\nunlawfully and in absolute disregard of extant government regulations.<br \/>\nShe is yet to comply with the court judgment of March 11, 2020,<br \/>\ndirecting her to pay Sambo&#8217;s outstanding salaries for over two years<br \/>\ndespite the fact that 21% would be accruing on the salaries after 30<br \/>\ndays from the judgment date. Because the interest in Sambo&#8217;s salaries is<br \/>\nnot coming from Dr. Amobi&#8217;s pocket but rather from the taxpayers, she<br \/>\nrebuffed the court.<\/p>\n<p>Yesufu Alonge, who was the Head of Power Procurement and a very<br \/>\nknowledgeable hand was frustrated out of the company by Dr. Amobi, who<br \/>\nwas always accusing him of coveting her job and scheming to unseat her.<br \/>\nTo save himself from the fate of Waziri and Sambo, Alonge tendered his<br \/>\nresignation and left. Abba Aliyu, the erstwhile Head of Corporate<br \/>\nServices, suffered a similar fate and his salary is still being<br \/>\nillegally withheld by Dr. Amobi knowing full well that she has no power<br \/>\nto discipline management staff. The AGM legal Demvihin Tsumba was<br \/>\nunlawfully abducted from the office at the instance of Dr. Amobi and<br \/>\ntaken to a police station on cooked-up charges. The police after<br \/>\ninvestigations gave her a clean bill as they didn&#8217;t find anything<br \/>\nagainst her. Despite that, Dr. Amobi is still hounding her and claims<br \/>\nthat her case for dismissal is to be presented to the Board.<\/p>\n<p>Late last year, she assaulted Mrs. Itohan Ehiede, the Head of Corporate<br \/>\nServices in her office, and in the presence of junior staff. This<br \/>\noutrageous conduct led the entire senior management staff to write a<br \/>\npetition calling for her removal from office. The matter is still<br \/>\npending but she has queried Mrs. Ehiede and has included her in the list<br \/>\nof staff to de dismissed in her submission to the Board. The Deputy<br \/>\nGeneral Counsel and former Head of Procurement, Dr. Eugene Edeoga did<br \/>\nnot also escape the wrath of the outgoing MD. For failing to carry out<br \/>\nher instructions to dismiss a staff through a disciplinary committee he<br \/>\nchaired, Dr. Amobi visited her anger on him and issued him with several<br \/>\nqueries. She has also sworn to get rid of him and will also make a case<br \/>\nfor his dismissal to the Board.<\/p>\n<p>The Head of Risks and Guaranties, Johnson Akinnawo is also in her bad<br \/>\nbooks. For joining the rest of the senior management staff to protest<br \/>\nher assault on Mrs. Itohan Ehiede, he incurred the wrath of Amobi.<br \/>\nSeveral times, she has summoned him to her office to berate him for<br \/>\ndaring to sign the petition and told him to his face that she will make<br \/>\nhim regret his action for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n<p>Her worst anger is reserved for Dr. Nnaemeka Ewelukwa whose appointment<br \/>\nMr. President has approved as her replacement. She is going all out to<br \/>\ntar him with her brush of hate and anger. A source at NBET who saw the<br \/>\ndossier she has compiled against Dr. Ewelukwa marveled at how an<br \/>\noutgoing MD would have the time to compile such a dossier running into<br \/>\nhundreds of pages against her successor, who was her General Counsel and<br \/>\nwho had served her loyally.<\/p>\n<p>An uneasy silence reigns at NBET as the staff ponders on how the<br \/>\nhigh-wire game of wits between the outgoing MD and her entire senior<br \/>\nmanagement will play out. A staff, who asked for anonymity to avoid<br \/>\nvictimization, wondered how Dr. Amobi within four years had problems<br \/>\nwith the entire nine-member senior management staff. Does it mean that<br \/>\nnot even one person is good enough for her? If she is a good person, how<br \/>\ncome that not even one out of the entire nine-man senior management<br \/>\nstaff is on her side?<\/p>\n<p>Another staff wondered what Dr. Amobi learned in all the places she<br \/>\nboasts to have worked. In civilized climes, where she claims to have<br \/>\nworked, once a successor is appointed, the decent thing is to take your<br \/>\nexit. Why can&#8217;t she take one-month terminal\/outstanding leave and go<br \/>\nhome with some modicum of respect to take care of herself despite<br \/>\nlooking very sick? The staff stated further that Dr. Amobi in an attempt<br \/>\nto destroy sensitive documents that could be used to jail her has<br \/>\nrestricted staff entry and exit into the office while she only has<br \/>\nunrestricted access to the office, this was communicated to the staff on<br \/>\nFriday, June 19, 2020, by the Head of Corporate Services, Ms. Halima<br \/>\nAbdulSalam.<\/p>\n<p>Our sources at the Ministry of Finance said that Dr. Amobi has been<br \/>\nadvised to take her terminal leave, more so since she didn&#8217;t take any<br \/>\nleave during her four-year stint at NBET because of fear of Waziri and<br \/>\nSambo might do in her absence. The Board meeting slated for Monday 22nd<br \/>\nJune 2020 promises to be an explosive one with several directors already<br \/>\nof the opinion that she should gracefully step aside to allow the new MD<br \/>\nto start the rebuilding of the company that has been so badly damaged by<br \/>\nDr. Amobi and her toxic governance.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Amobi soldiers amidst a forlorn hope that the President could be<br \/>\nmade to reverse her sacking. She continues to run from pillar to post in<br \/>\nher desperate attempt at reversing her dismissal. The letter from the<br \/>\nMinistry of Finance asking that she serve out the remaining one month of<br \/>\nher tenure has provided her with a lifeline, which she has grasped with<br \/>\nall her strength as she continues her crocodile cry and rounds of<br \/>\nbegging amongst influential people in government.<\/p>\n<p>But this government that claims to be fighting corruption seems to have<br \/>\nbeen handling Dr. Amobi&#8217;s matter with kid gloves. Here&#8217;s an MD\/CEO who<br \/>\nhas for long not only been indicted for corruption by at least three<br \/>\nanti-corruption agencies in the country but has also been found to have<br \/>\ngrossly violated public service rules by operating a private company<br \/>\nwhile in public service. In a government that is truly fighting<br \/>\ncorruption, what Dr. Amobi deserves is not only an outright sack<br \/>\nimmediately but also diligent prosecution before a competent court to<br \/>\nserve as a deterrent to like-minded public officers.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The MD\/CEO of NBET Dr. Marilyn Amobi who was relieved of her appointment by President Buhari on June 8, 2020, has refused to vacate her office and is desperately clinging&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":74349,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74348","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
