BREAKING: Buhari sacks TETFund Executive Secretary, Baffa, appoints replacement

President Muhammadu Buhari has sacked the Executive Secretary of the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund), Dr. Bichi Baffa.

Baffa has also been replaced by a former Executive Secretary, Prof. Elias Suleiman Bogoro.

The sacked Executive Secretary of TETFund was an aide to the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu.

He was appointed the head of TETFund alongside 14 other heads of parastatals in the education ministry on August 2, 2016.

The Sun reports that Baffa had been having misunderstanding with the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu, particularly as it concerns 2019 intervention.

He was said to have disregarded the Minister in virtually everything happening in TETFund, particularly in interventions to institutions.

This was in addition to his alleged deep and open involvement in political activities ahead of the forthcoming elections in Kano state.
