Reverse Gear mode . Some of those Agencies have been doing very well, why change them in one fell swoop?

Somewhere somehow inside me, I feel this ambode guy will out-perform BRF.
Good move if you ask me. No new wine in old bottles.

This just confirms what I have head through my connections in Politics.

Ambode is a cretin! He lacks a sharp mind and is not clued up upstairs.

What this cretin just did is appalling!

You just wake up and tell all heads in the civil service they are sacked. They have no income coming in anymore.

Basically this is an outright signal and statement to any appointed civil servant leading an organisation that "once you are appointed, you have 4 to 8 years to steal as much as you need for your future as you cannot expect a career in this role. Once a new politician comes in, you could lose your job irrespective of your performance. Just steal to be safe!".

This guy is a pure cretin!

Fashola did the same in his time,he fired Tinubu's people and appointed those he felt he could work with. they already know after 8 years their time is over. They are not career civil servants but appointments, he needs his own people he can trust with his plans. Best move

Very true, those guys had gotten too comfortable and most didn't perform in Fashola's last 4 years , they were just taking money. Let him pit new motivated people. An appointment should never last more than 8 years anyway, all the no2s and below are staying and only the heads will be changed which is good. Most of those guys are not ready for new ideas and need to leave to make way for fresh blood. Fashola's last 4 years was disappointing and those guys were part of the reason so Ambode is smart to let go of them

Best decision so far.
