President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the immediate removal and the replacement of the Executive Secretary, Jim Obazee, and the reconstitution of the board of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria.
Buhari appointed a Chairman and a new Executive Secretary for the council.
This is coming two days after the brouhaha of a code in the FRC regulations, which led to the stepping aside of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, from presiding over the church in Nigeria.
