Truth Live News is reporting scenes of jubilation among employees of the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in Abuja, following the removal of their Registrar General, Garba Abubakar. A video circulating on the platform showcases a crowd gathered outside the CAC headquarters, merrily celebrating Abubakar’s departure.
This development stemmed from allegations of autocratic leadership that had been attributed to Garba Abubakar, earning him the nickname “Emperor” within the organization. In an official statement by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, the presidential adviser on media and publicity, the decision to remove the Registrar General is presented as a strategic step aligned with the government’s commitment to fostering trade expansion and driving economic growth in Nigeria, with a focus on supporting various scales of industries.
In a related development, a cynical flyer has been circulated, bearing a list of grievances against the former Registrar General, Garba Abubakar. It accused him of various infractions, including abuse of office, power intoxication, lies, impunity, and divisive leadership styles. The flyer alleged high levels of corruption, nepotism, mistreatment of staff, and financial misappropriation, among other misconducts.
This underscores the significant impact leadership changes makes on employee morale and perceptions within an organization. The employees’ celebration serves as a visual representation of their reaction to this transformation. Moreover, it signals the government’s dedication to enacting economic reforms and initiating a restructuring process aimed at enhancing the business environment in the country.
