The board, which allegedly appears to always approve everything sent by Agbaje, seems to be embarrassed considering the array of more senior and experienced Executive Directors. Meanwhile, the two rookie Executive Directors being proposed to be fast tracked to serve as his 3rd term is believed not to be able to match-up in experience and technical skills.
