. The sack followed a recommendation by a ministerial panel that indicted her for several offences, including lack of administrative competence, power-play and ineptitude.
Worried about the agitations of the staff, Olusegun Aganga, then Nigeria’s Minister of Trade and Investment, set up an investigative panel, led by one Abdulkadir Musa, to probe the series of allegations against Mrs Umar.
“The committee observed from the testimony of directors who appeared before it and documents presented that the commission has a weak and divided management structure with the ES running with essentially only one director while the other six directors were not being carried along,” the investigative panel stated.
Relying on the agitations of the staff, the recommendation of the NIPC investigative committee and Mr Aganga’s submission, Mr Jonathen sacked Mrs Umar and appointed Aisha Hassan-Baba as the chief executive officer of the agency. In another part of the memo, the directors said Mrs Umar has failed to convey management meetings to discuss salient issues affecting the institution. They said her lack of commitment “constitutes a big gap in the general administration of the commission as directors are not aware of happenings and are not given chances to contribute meaningfully to any activity of the commission.”
For instance, on 21 December 21 2022, the petitioner alleged, another sum of five million naira was paid to the personal account of one Yusuf Mustapha as a resource person in an event insiders said was never held.
An incompetent Jonathan knew what Incompetence was? Wawu!!!
You wonder why we are the poverty capital of the world
Its a regime of incompetent people na
The incompetent that is breaking all ground, completing all previous abandoned projects, paying backlogs of debt and 13% derivations from 1999 and fixing all legacy projects. I prefer this incompetent Buhari. May Allah bless him
That's why the Nigerian economy has collapsed under the APC. Political patronage, instead of competence is what qualifies appointees.
Competency is not the first consideration in the mind of MBuhari, but arewa and Muslim domination in his NigeriaGov.
Too many incompetent brought us to where we are today
