“The action by the NUDB under your supervision was undertaken without recourse for permission from the constituted authority. Furthermore, it depicts insensitivity to the need to conduct the elections under an atmosphere free from acrimony and rancor.

“Consequently, the Executive Governor, Engr. Abdullahi A. Sule has granted approval that you should proceed on indefinite suspension without pay due to the fact that the unwarranted destruction of the Billboards was tantamount to negligence, insubordination, and misconduct.

“In the interim, upon the receipt of this letter, you are to strictly comply pending a further thorough investigation.

“You are, therefore, directed to hand over the affairs of the Agency to the most senior Director with immediate effect, please,” the letter stated.
