The compulsory leave which commences on October 26 is believed to be a prelude to his sack from his position as chairman of the organization.
Nta’s compulsory leave was contained in a letter from the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal.
According to a source, this will be the third letter received by the chairman from the office of the SGF, informing him to proceed on compulsory leave.
This medium further gathered that his sack is connected to his ''weak fight'' against corruption.
With his Sack, President Buhari will get a stronger replacement who will work in conjunction with the EFCC to probe those accused of fraud.
Recall that the Federal Government was said to have concluded plans to file fraud charges against some former governors.
Nta was appointed by President Jonathan in acting capacity in 2011 and was confirmed a year after by the Senate.
It was gathered that at a meeting with President Buhari earlier this year, Nta had argued that his tenure would end on November 17, 2017, to which the President allegedly retorted that by his records showed the tenure of the ICPC head ends on November 17, 2016.
