A Permanent Secretary, Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) has reinstate a retired former Acting Secretary of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB), Folashade Kolawaole.
Kolawole, who was accused of corrupt activities, securing backyard judgement to politicians, shady contracts, high handedness, gross abuse of office, refusal to implement the new SOP which is a gazetted document from the Presidency, was alleged to have quickly sent in her letter of voluntary retirement on the 12th of April 2017, all to avoid further investigation and being persecuted for her actions.
Suddenly, she was reinstated and resumed in August 2017 as the Acting Secretary of CCB. Attached herewith is the reinstated letter, duly sign by Dr. R. P. Ugo, Permanent Secretary, General Services in the Office of the SGF despite confirming that the former has began to receive some part of her severance allowance and benefits.
Upon her return to office, after five months into her retirement, the former secretary Kolawole was booed and denied access to her office by some members of the bureau but she, however, arranged for police to force her way into the office.
Frowning at the decision, CCB staff members besieged the Federal Secretariat, wielding placards with messages expressing their dissatisfaction over the alleged attempt by a Permanent Secretary in the SGF office to unilaterally sign a letter reinstating Kolawole.
“CCB is praying for the President to intervene before it goes out of hand, because without a functional Code of Conduct Bureau even the EFCC or ICPC cannot properly carry out their functions effectively.
