President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday sacked the Executive Secretary/Chief Executive of Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC), Mrs. Saratu Altine Umar.
The president approved the appointment of Mrs. Uju Aisha Hassan-Baba, as the new NIPC boss. No reason was given for Umar's sack in a terse statement issued by the presidential spokesman, Dr. Reuben Abati.
Hassan-Baba, the new NIPC boss, had served previously as Director-General, Legal Aid Council of Nigeria, Attorney-
General and Commissioner of Justice in Anambra State and Director, Legal Services, Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.
Jonathan thanked the out-going Executive Secretary/Chief Executive for her services and wished her well in her future
endeavours.
Meanwhile, the president will leave Abuja this Tuesday to attend the 47th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government holding in Accra, Ghana.
The summit, which coincides with the 40th anniversary of ECOWAS, will receive reports on the current situation in Burkina Faso and Guinea Bissau and deliberate on issues of democratic consolidation and regional peace and stability.
