President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday terminated the appointment of his Special Adviser on Political Matters, Alhaji Ahmed Gulak.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, announced this in a three-paragraph statement made available to journalists.
Abati said the President thanked Gulak for his services to the present administration and wished him success in his future endeavours.
He, however, did not give reason for the sacking.
He said a replacement for Gulak would be announced in due course.
Abati wrote, “President Jonathan has terminated the appointment of his Special Adviser (Political), Alhaji Ahmed A. Gulak, with immediate effect.
“President Jonathan thanks Alhaji Gulak for his services to the present administration and wishes him success in his future endeavours.
“A replacement for Alhaji Gulak will be announced in due course.”
Gulak was sighted in the Presidential Villa, Abuja, shortly before the announcement was made.
