Another Aide to the Minister of
Communications, Barrister Adebayo Shittu, Mallam Ibrahim has resigned.
Ibrahim who is the Chief Security
Officer (CSO) to the Minister resigned last Thursday due to non payment of his
four months salaries.
Our correspondent gathered on
Friday that the CSO who was until his resignation stationed at the Samonda home
of the ex-Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General decided to leave the
Minister’s home after he made several efforts to get his entitlements allegedly
owed him by the Minister.
A source close to the Minster
said like the case of Ibrahim, some drivers of the APC governorship aspirant in
the 2019 elections in the state are still being owed four months’ salaries.
We further gathered that
lawyers at the newly built Mokola Ibadan legal chamber of the Saki born legal
luminary are also not being paid.
Shittu was in the news last year
when his Personal Assistant, Alhaji Rasaq Olubodun resigned after he accused
the Minister of owing him 23 months salaries.
His Media Aide, Mr. Victor
Oluwadamilare was also sacked by the Minister after he demanded for his 28
months salaries from the Minister. Communications Minister, Adebayo Shittu in
another salary scandal, sacks aide over 28 months’ arrears
However all efforts made by our
correspondent to get reactions of the minister on the latest resignation proved
abortive as at the time of filling this report on Friday as calls put through
his phone numbers were not going.
But, a close Aide to the Minister,
Mr. Malik Aderogba in a brief telephone conversation confirmed the resignation on Friday saying that the ex-CSO
resigned because he had been offered another job in Osogbo, Osun State.
Malik said, “Yes, he resigned
because he has seen another offer. He has been posted to Osogbo, Osun State.”
