According to Isah the decision to relieve Obono-Obla of the position was based on the grounds that his recent actions were contrary to the enabling act that established the panel.

He said that the letter equally stated that the activities of the panel had contravened the established administrative procedures and protocols in the nation’s civil service structure.

He was instructed to, henceforth, seek clearance from the minister before granting any interview or issuing press statements on official matters.

He was also directed to provide a detailed report on the activities of the panel to Malami for onward transmission to the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
