President Goodluck Jonathan today sacked the Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Suleiman Abba.
Abba’s sack was contained in a statement issued by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Reuben Abati.
Impeccable
sources told GoldmyneTV that President Jonathan relieved Abba of his
appointment because of his perceived relationship with the
President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari.

Abba was
present when the chairman of the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC), Prof. Attahiru Jega, presented the certificate of
return in Abuja.
The
Presidency perceived that the sacked IGP worked against the interest of
President Jonathan and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the March
28 and April 11 general elections.
It was
learnt that the President had security report on Abba’s relationship
with the top echelon of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Another source said the IG was sacked because of his failure to do the bidding of the President and his party, the PDP.
Ironically,
the sacked IG took side with the president and the PDP in the crisis
that engulfed the House of Representatives. He even failed to recognise
Speaker Aminu Tambuwal as the speaker.
