Mutfwang also suspended Mr Johnbull Shekarau, the Chairman, House of Assembly Service Commission in the state, over conduct that negates the standards of his office.

The sack and suspension of the appointees was announced in a statement on Tuesday by Mr Samuel Jatau, the Secretary to the State Government (SSG) in Jos.

He said Mutfwang also suspended Mr Johnbull Shekarau, the Chairman, House of Assembly Service Commission in the state, over conduct that negates the standards of his office.
