President Muhammadu Buhari has removed Director-General of the Budget office, Yahaya Gusau, over the irregularities in the 2016 budget, Premium Times reports.

Mr. Gusau, who replaced Bright Okogu (who completed two terms of office), was appointed to the office on August 18, 2015, for a term of four years that could have been renewed for another four years.

But he has now been sacked less than six months after, following the widespread irregularities detected in the 2016 budget presently under consideration by the National Assembly.

Tijjani Abdullahi has been appointed as the new Director-General in charge of the Budget Office of the Federation.
