Abba Kyari Was Opposed To Corrupt Elements- Buhari by valentineuwakwe(m): 11:41pm On Apr 18, 2020
The President, Maj. Gen Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.) , says his late Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, was opposed to corrupt elements .
Buhari said this in a tribute written in honour of Kyari on Saturday .
The President wrote , “ In political life, Abba never sought elective office for himself. Rather , he set himself against the view and conduct of two generations of Nigeria’ s political establishment – who saw corruption as an entitlement and its practice a by -product of possessing political office .”
Buhari said the late Kyari was in his 20s when they first met .
He also revealed that his late aide was 67 years old as of the time of his death and they were friends for 42 years.
The President added, “ Mallam Abba Kyari, who died on April 17 , 2020, at the age of 67 from complications caused by the coronavirus , was a true Nigerian patriot . My loyal friend and compatriot for the last 42 years – and latterly my Chief-of - Staff – he never wavered in his commitment to the betterment of every one of us.
“ He was only in his twenties when we first met . A diligent student, soon after he was blessed with the opportunity to study abroad – first at Warwick and then law at the University of Cambridge. But there was never any question Abba would bring his first -rate skills and newly acquired world -class knowledge back to Nigeria – which he did – immediately upon graduation . ”
Buhari said Kyari ensured that all governors and ministers were given equal access to him , adding that for his late aide, there was no favouritism.
He added, “ Working, without fail, seven days each and every week, he acted forcefully as a crucial gatekeeper to the presidency , ensuring no one – whether minister or governor had access beyond another – and that all those representing and serving our country were treated equally.
“ He made clear in his person and his practice , always , that every Nigerian – regardless of faith, family , fortune or frailty – was heard and treated respectfully and the same.”

Yet Gandollar won election. And Aso clinic is empty and not functional after gulping billions for 5 years. Abeg make I hear word.

Rubbish as usual

Failures talking

Someone who was accused of collecting 500 m bribe from Mtn to reduce their fines by the federal government...

Someone who was active in an administration that supported Gandollar for second tenure....

Paying and rehabilitating Boko Haram members who have killed thousands of Nigerians..

Failures talking...
People in their early eighties who ought to be relaxing in a golf course with their grand children...
But greed for power and wealth won't let them be

Imagine going to Germany to sign a power deal on behalf of the government yourself... When the minister can easily get it done..

Eschew greed my people....
Live life
It only happens once
