This took place yesterday, March 10, 2015 and Rtd Gen Agwai is to hand over to the new chairman in the person of Mr Ishaya Dare Akau whose appointment is with immediate effect, according to the Presidential Spokesman, Reuben Abati.
Gen Agwai's inevitability of change remarks at the 78th birthday ceremony of former president Olusegun Obasanjo is what led to his sack by the current president.
In his words, he said "in life you find out that everything needs change, if that is what the community wants, what the people want, you must give it to them and as such it becomes inevitable".
I guess this statement must have infuriated President Jonathan and the ruling party and we all know the slogan "change" is synonymous with the opposition party, APC. So to them, Rtd Gen Agwai is biting the finger that feeds him.
