President Muhammadu Buhari has come under attack over the sack of the Registrar, National Examination Council, NECO, Prof. Charles Uwakwe.
It was gathered that NECO registrar was sacked on Wednesday for fraudulent practices and suppression of official records.
Also, four other top management officials of the council were dismissed after investigation.
A new registrar, Mr Abubakar Gana was immediately appointed as the acting Registrar.
Some Nigerians did not accept the recent development as they took to their Twitter pages to express their discontent and also accused the President of practicing nepotism.
They criticised the replacement of the registrar with a Northerner.
Below are some comments from social media,
@Mr_temitope “Another Abubakar is the acting Registrar. Yes, the former registrar was sacked for corruption which is a grave offence and should be prosecuted but is there no incorruptible Nigerian from another region or tribe? Well those that support nepotism should enjoy it while it lasts.”
@Udehem2020 “The new chief of staff at work he is installing his boys in power so it will be easy for him to loot his own share of our resources.”
@Faith “Yes another sack to replace them with the most Educated and wise people from the North. It’s not strange anymore.”
@Daphinon “Guess Mr President has found a new hobby in sacking his appointees. Sack a southerner, replace with northerner. Sack a northerner, replace with another northerner.”
