President Muhammadu Buhari has cancelled the dismissal of Marilyn Amobi as the Managing Director of the Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading Company Limited (NBET).<\/p>\n
Sale Mamman, Minister of Power, had asked Amobi to step down with immediate effect. He also ordered her probe.<\/p>\n
Buhari\u2019s decision was contained in a memo by the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).<\/p>\n
The agency has also been moved from the Ministry of Power to the Ministry of Finance.<\/p>\n
Nnaemeka Ewelukwa, who had assumed office as the Acting Managing Director of NBET, has been asked to step aside for Amobi to resume.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday,\u00a0Buhari overruled Mamman on the suspension of Damilola Ogunbiyi as the Managing Director of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA).<\/p>\n
Ogunbiyi, had before the minister\u2019s action, tendered her resignation to take up a job as the UN special representative for sustainable energy and CEO of Sustainable Energy for All (SEforAll).<\/p>\n
Ministry workers had accused Mamman of moving against top staff of the agency as though he was on a vendetta mission.<\/p>\n
DAILY POST recalls that Mamman dismissed both Ogunbiyi and Amobi within 24 hours.<\/p>\n
