In the letter, the duo told Ibrahim: “Management regrets to inform you that your services are no longer required as the board has approved your immediate dismissal.”

The report notes that Ibrahim is a first-class graduate of accounting and a chartered accountant, who had experience working with some commercial banks before moving to the FMBN in 2010 as a senior manager.

“I can say without mincing words that I am the most qualified professional accountant with relevant academic and professional qualifications in the whole of the Federal Mortgage Bank (of Nigeria) as at today.

“There is no other staff with a first-class degree in accounting or any other finance-related course throughout FMBN,” he said.
