President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of nine aides that will serve in Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s office, Igbere TV reports.

This comes barely 24 hours after the president inaugurated his cabinet, 84 days after taking the oath of office for a second term.

Igbere TV had reported that 43 new ministers, who were screened by the Senate last month, were sworn in at the presidential villa, on Wednesday.

Among the nine aides, five were re-appointed, having served in President Buhari’s first term, while four are fresh minds.

A statement obtained by Igbere TV and issued from the Vice President’s Office, said the appointments took effect from May 29 when President Buhari began his second term.

Good to know that the Presidency is operating as one unit.

In contrast to what we see with previous govt, a lot of agencies and departments under the presidency has been domiciled in the Office of the VP.

Except the Chief of staff to the VP, these are techincally not immediate aides of the VP, but aides of the Presidency as an establishment, but domiciled in the office of the VP.

Some of them were nominated by the VP and has been working with him since the first tenure.

What some people want is for the VP to be fighting and countering his Boss and for the office of the President and VP to be operating as cat and dog.

All I'm seeing here are Advisers to the President and not to the vice President.
If these appointees are to work with the Vice President from the president sides then your heading is wrong OP.

This system began during President Obasanjo's second term.

In 2003 the presidency announced that there is only one Presidency. Therefore, Atiku Abubakar's aides were appointed by President Olusegun Obasanjo and their titles were "special assistant to the president (in the office of the vice president) ".

It was this system that allowed President Obasanjo to sack Garba Shehu from his position as media aide to Atiku Abubakar in 2006. It was suddenly announced that President Obasanjo had accepted Garba Shehu's resignation, even though Garba Shehu had not tendered his resignation.

Thanks for the explanation....

There's no privacy in this country... How can i be pressing my phone in a bus then someone from the back will say "Bros Abeg scroll up i no see that girl picture well"

Yet, no improvement to the basic lives of Nigerians.

Good for him.

But Buhari should approve good security, good health care and good housing for the masses too.

Fully compensated to come follow eat the yams

It’s always dis two stupid pple.

Does Osinbajo have right to rejects any of the aides if he is not comfortable?

Ajuri deserves it.

Maybe the VP should be doing all the work himself.

Firstly, every Vice President has statutory responsibility for the economy .
Secondly, abdicating responsibility for which you were elected is not a virtue
Thirdly, you are not informed and therefore lacks the understanding to speak on such a matter. There is only a presidency run by a President

No single Igbo name here as either aide or Adviser. Everybody is former Lagos State commissioner.

Thank you bro, forget the misleading and hateful first comment from the ftc agabusta

No and yes . Depending on the relationship that exist between himself and his principal who ca even withdraw them all

That oyibo wey no Sabi anything?

I am surprised Maupe Ogun Yusuf is still with Channels.

That lady argues intelligently.

They advise through chief of state, Kyari advisers. Majority of them will never have a personal discussion with Mr. President

SimSify:
All are round pegs in square hole..synonymous with the presidency..

Appointing Aides for compensation..
Most of them does not even know what to advice the presidency on..

Does the presidency take advice from this people?

Do this people advice the presidency or they advice Kyari and then he interprets the advice to the joy of Buhari?

Do this people even have the guts, damning all circumstances to tell the presidency the truth like mama Taraba the former women affairs minister ?

I think this one's are just there to sing melodious song to the hears of Bubu!

helinues:

He nominated them the President can only reject their nomination based on security or indictment

Nodogragra4me:

Your explanations are not clear.. Can he rejects any of the aide ( assuming he worked with the person before and does not like the relationship.

The reason I am asking is cos Laolu Akande is Osibanjo right hand man tey tey. That means Osibanjo appoints him but must have presidency authority

kayzat:

That nominated gives better explanation.. Thanks

The aides were selected by Osinbajo and then the list was sent to Buhari for approval.

I totally agree with you!
