President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has terminated the appointment of his Special Adviser (Political), Alhaji Ahmed Gulak with immediate effect.
This was announced in Abuja by Special Adviser to the President, Dr. Reuben Abati.
“President Jonathan thanks Alhaji Gulak for his services to the present Administration and wishes him success in his future endeavours. A replacement for Alhaji Gulak will be announced in due course,” Abati said in a terse statement.
Though he did not give the reason for Gulak’s ouster, indications are that it is in connection with his loud mouth and beating of the gun with regard to the 2015 general elections, thus regulalrly bringing Jonathan and the Presidency negative publicity.
