Governor Ifeanyi A. Okowa of Delta State has sacked his executive assistant, Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe over recklessness and insubordination.
Latimore’s termination of the contract was contained in a sack letter signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Patrick Ukah.
The SSG noted that Latimore’s services as EA on communication are no longer required by the state government, hence, he has been ordered to return all government properties that are in his possession.
The letter read in part: “I write to convey to you the displeasure of His Excellency, the Governor of Delta State, over your conduct with respect to the performance of your duties wherein there has been manifest recklessness and insubordination.
“As this trend can no longer be tolerated, I regret to inform you that your services as Executive Assistance, Communication, is no longer required and your appointment is hereby terminated.
“Accordingly, I am to request that you take necessary steps to hand over all government properties in your possession to the Permanent Secretary, Directorate of Government House, and Protocol forthwith.”
