GEJ fired SURE-P boss for attending Obasanjo’s birthday event?



 That's the trending discussion right now on social media. Presidential spokesperson Reuben Abati a few hours ago announced the sack of SURE-P boss, Martin Luther Agwai, and now there are reports that he was sacked for attending former president Obasanjo’s birthday event last week.

Premium Times reports

Premium Times understands reliably that Mr. 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.
Sources within the presidency told Premium Times that all government functionaries were instructed by President Jonathan to boycott Mr. Obasanjo’s birthday event.
Our sources said when informed of the president’s warning, Mr. 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 Mr. Agwai would be fired.
One source said it appears Mr. 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.
Mr. Agwai himself replaced Christopher Kolade, who left office after criticising the president
The ex-Blues defender is well aware of what the manager will be telling his side ahead of the home leg of their Champions League tie but says that Paris Saint-Germain will threaten.
Paris Saint-Germain defender David Luiz has warned Jose Mourinho that telling Chelsea to sit back against his side would be a dangerous tactic.
The Ligue 1 giants head to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday needing a goal after the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie finished 1-1 in France.
David Luiz, who left Chelsea in June for the largest transfer fee ever paid for a defender, says that he knows what Mourinho will be telling his team before the second leg.
But the 27-year-old, who urges his team to believe that they can advance, feels that the Portuguese’s usual approach could be dangerous for the hosts.
“I know how Jose will prepare for this; he will be telling the boys to be patient and hit us on the counterattack,” David Luiz told the Daily Mirror.
“He knows that we need to score and that they don’t. I know that is his way. We must be careful because I know that Chelsea have the ability to hurt on the counterattack but they must be careful as well.
“To sit back and just defend against Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi can also be very dangerous so it is not just us who have to be careful.
