A SENIOR OFFICER who had become the face of a parastatal
has finally been demoted and unceremoniously shipped off to a remote county
outpost. The man, known for his insatiable appetite for the limelight,
had reportedly unofficially
crowned himself the agency's de facto spokesperson, often sidelining his
superiors, and dominating the airwaves during times of crisis. Why the transfer? We
are told his relentless media appearances and obsession with being the voice of
the agency allegedly rubbed his bosses the wrong way, especially
when he began issuing statements on sensitive matters without clearance.
