ALLEGED WIRETAPPING: COURT REJECTS EL-RUFAI’S NO-CASE SUBMISSION, ORDERS HIM TO ENTER DEFENCE A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, to enter his defence, if he so desires, in his ongoing trial over the alleged unlawful interception of the telephone communications of the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu. Justice Joyce Abdulmalik gave the order on Monday while ruling on El-Rufai’s no-case submission. The judge dismissed the application, holding that the prosecution had presented sufficient evidence to warrant calling on the defendant to enter his defence. The court adjourned the case until November 25 for the defence.

NNPCL Disengages Management Staff

Management staff of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, with less than 15 months left until their statutory retirement have been disengaged from service.

A statement by the company indicates that workforce change became effective as of today, September 19.

The move, which saw three Executive Vice Presidents exit the company, was described by NNPCL as “our bid to pursue effective organisational renewal to support the delivery of our strategic business objectives”.

The statement further explains that the changes were in line with NNPCL’s efforts to scale up capabilities through targeted talent management and equal opportunity.

Also in July, the federal government commenced the Implementation of the revised Public Service Rules (PSR).

According to the provision of the PSR, Permanent Secretaries “shall hold office for a term of four years and another renewable term based only on satisfactory performance.”

And that any director (GL 17) or its equivalent must compulsorily retire upon the attainment of eight years in that position.
