Here are seven things you should know about the sacked Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ambassador Ayo Oke, who was relieved of his duty today by President Muhammadu Buhari:

1. Ambassador Ayo Oke was sacked as the Director General of Nigeria's National Intelligence Agency (NIA) by President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday, October 30, 2017.

2. Amb. Oke was appointed DG NIA by then President Goodluck Jonathan on November 7, 2013. He succeeded Ezekiel Olaniyi Oladeji.

3. He hails from Oyo State.

4. He studied economics and political science at Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia in the United States.

5. He was previously the Director (Regions) at the headquarters of the NIA, before his appointment to head the agency.

6. Ambassador Oke is a career diplomat who was formerly at the Commonwealth Secretariat in London.

7. In April 2017, he was suspended by President Muhammadu Buhari after Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) officials raided an apartment at Osborne Towers in Ikoyi, Lagos (which he later described as a ‘safe house’) and found US$43.4 million, and nearly £27,800 and some N23million Naira ($75,000) at the empty flat.

Wow!!! FTC.

Noted

Lost all hopes on Nigeria...

Every f-ucking politician or apointee here is extremely corrupt way worse than we see.

A case of you must not get caught but if you do, get sacked without prosecution.(dont talk me about these eye service justice system or investigators)

They all got their hands stained one way or the other so they know the lines they cant cross.

See whats going on with Trump's aides in America
That's how it's done. You get caught, you face consequences or at least proper investigations to reveal everyone involved

One of the unlucky thieves

ok

I was wondering why he has the ambassador tag

His profile is of little use to me.

A criminal sacked by a criminal.
End of story.

See him belle like wetin dem cave..... Odaran (Criminal). That doesn't makes Buhari a saint. I never said I am a saint too oo

most important thing you should know now.. he's sacked

OK, so?

And with all these lies no prosecution


May jubril die a painful die

Our system is so porous.

Nothing worth taking note of

hmmmmn,a diplomat who heads an intelligence agency

Good riddance

Hypocricy of SW, they wont kick.
Jonathan appointed most of them but Buhari appointed only northerners.
