Ambassador Danjuma Sheni, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been suspended for embarrassing President Goodluck Jonathan.
THE NATION reports that part of the embarrassment involved his alleged role in the controversy over the invitation of Nigeria’s envoys from South Africa few weeks after the diplomatic row between Nigeria and Morocco on issue of telephone conversation between Jonathan and King Mohammed VI.
A Source who spoke anonymously on the suspension said, ''The Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been suspended and queried for embarrassing the President by not clearing from him before inviting the Charge d’Affaires. The President on Monday directed the Head of Service to query him and he has 24 hours to respond to the query.
''You will recall that that was the second embarrassment, this one came shortly after the Morocco saga. The permanent secretary was to be dismissed immediately, but for the civil service rule. Even at that, there will still be further consequence.
''As at now, a new permanent secretary has been redeployed to the ministry to replace him.”
