Sacking, firing, redeployed, removed, replaced or DAAHA????
 
I am not sure what to make of this story except to give it sometime and see.  
 
It seems the online newspapers  are still struggling with the accurate description of whatever happened in these recent cabinet. Or should I say governnent "reshuffle, Deployment"?   
 
Now I see a new word "Remove"  as the recent euphomism, but still not the accurate description of what exactly happened.   
 
When I worked at my jobs, I do not remember seeing anyone being Sacked and removed at the same time.
 
Perhaps I also should  conveniently just add "REORG" as a new one to this debate .
