Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, has described President Muhammadu Buhari’s appointment of his tribesman, Professor Ibrahim Gambari as his Chief of Staff as nepotistic, adding that the singular action has diminished the President’s status as a statesman and a nationalist.
In a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko and the National media affairs director Miss Zainab Yusuf, and made available to DAILY POST on Thursday, HURIWA said it was unfortunate that for five years, Buhari has been consistent and has indeed ramped up his soft spot and his passion for always and often picking his tribesmen, women and religious associates from the north into strategic national offices since the last five years.
HURIWA added that “The demise of the immediate past Chief of Staff Abba Kyari was seen by some observers as the end of nepotism and sectionalism in the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration because those accusing the then powerful CoS from Borno State assumed that as someone who belonged to the infamous Kaduna Mafia, and had lived in Kaduna metropolis which is the centre of Pro-northern politics, that he was instrumental to the heavily biased pro-northern appointments made by the current...
HURIWA stated that the first public comments by the newly appointed Chief of Staff Ibrahim Gambari that he is not answerable to Nigerians but to the President have shown the danger of nepotism and favouritism in making national appointments in a complex society like Nigeria.
Buhari himself does he have a good reputation? So let's not forget a devil will always role with his partner
