This was conveyed in a letter dated January 3, signed by the council secretary, Shehu Mudi Muhammad, and seen by Peoples Gazette.
“The content of the said letter indicated your disloyalty and disrespect to the Executive Governor of the State and the government. It therefore directed for your removal with immediate effect.
