MR. Yakubu Danladi, Speaker of the Kwara House of Assembly, has sacked his media aide, Mr. Sherif Ibrahim.
Ibrahim, who is the Special Assistant (Media) to the Speaker, confirmed his sack in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Ilorin.
He fielded questions on his speculated disengagement since Wednesday, after the disturbances at the state APC stakeholders’ meeting at the Banquet Hall in Ilorin.
He said he had formally met with the speaker who told him (Ibrahim) that he (Danladi) had accepted his disengagement without grudges.
Ibrahim, who said he accepted his sack in good faith, thanked the speaker for giving him the opportunity to serve and pray for success in his political career.
Meanwhile, the speaker is yet to make a public statement on the development.
The former media Aide to the Speaker who was appointed by the Speaker immediately after the inauguration of the ninth Assembly in June 2019, was the former Editor of an online newspaper, “the Fresh Insight”. (NAN)
