Marilyn Ogar, has been compulsorily retired from the agency effective from yesterday. Ms. Ogar was told to leave the force yesterday via a retirement letter dispatched to her and several others by the new leadership of the agency. She is being forced out of the agency 7 years before she is due for retirement.
According to NEW TELEGRAPH, Ogar's fate may not be unconnected with her role in the last administration and the run-up to the 2015 election.
Ogar had been accused of alleged partisanship in the build-up to the general elections.
This blog could recall that during her stint as the spokesperson, Ms. Ogar, frequently got involved in political matters, her actions portrayed the agency as a partisan government agency especially as she frequently told lies against opposition parties and individuals during her highly cerebral press conferences.
Early this year Ms. Ogar was also accused of receiving bribes from the Petroleum
Products Marketing Company (PPMC) to supply lorryloads of Dual Purpose Kerosene
shortly before gubernatorial elections in Osun state
Ms. Ogar was removed and also demoted as the spokesperson in July shortly after
President Muhammad Buhari appointed Mr. Daura to head the organization.
