Kwara State House of Assembly Speaker, Hon. Yakubu Danladi has sacked his media aide Ibrahim Sheriff Gold for his role in the disruption of the APC stakeholders’ meeting in Ilorin on Wednesday.
Sheriff Gold, who is allegedly a member of the Lukman Mustapha media crew was sacked last night after a video footage emerged of his involvement in the violent disruption of the meeting.
“Sheriff has been sacked because he was seen in the video as one of the people who disrupted the meeting. His principal is livid that he could take part in such a shameful thing despite previous warnings to steer clear of the party issues,” a source in the House of Assembly said.
“Sheriff has repeatedly gone against the rules of staying out of the crisis. He has been caught many times organising anti-government activities even when he is the spokesman of the Speaker. His cup became filled yesterday with his involvement in the violence that trailed the stakeholders meeting in which he was seen as one of those behind it.
Sources said Sheriff has been using his links in the government to expose classified information.
“At least he ought to have honorably resigned if he knows he cannot conduct himself within ethical terms of his job as a media aide of the Speaker, the source added.
