Burora expressed his gratitude to the HR office of the President, his consultant, and his advisor for their assistance.
The suspension follows a series of allegations against Burora, which have subjected his actions to scrutiny in recent weeks.
Authorities have not provided further information about the allegations or the duration of the suspension.
Sources within the presidency have confirmed that Burora has been dismissed from his position.
Burora's reported offence relates to a complaint filed by the Office of the Speaker of Parliament, accusing him of being "disoriented." Specifically, the Speaker alleges that Burora used Twitter to undermine government officials and programs, thereby failing to fulfil his duty of supporting the government.
The exact duration of Burora's suspension remains unclear, but it appears to be the initial step in disciplinary proceedings against him.
