EXCLUSIVE: Abba Kyari’s Real Date Of Birth Uncovered by Nobody: 8:21am On Apr 19, 2020
Abba Kyari, the late chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, was 67 years old when he died last night, PREMIUM TIMES can now authoritatively report.

Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, according to official records obtained by PREMIUM TIMES. The records have not been publicly disclosed until now.

Mr Kyari died on Friday night in Lagos, becoming the most senior Nigerian government official and public figure to fall victim to coronavirus. The presidency announced his death shortly after midnight on Saturday.

His body was moved to Abuja on Saturday morning and subsequently interred at the military cemetery in the Gudu neighbourhood of the capital.

Although he had served as the chief of staff since 2015, and widely believed to be the president’s most powerful aide, little was known about his age and date of birth.

That led many media outlets to estimate his age, putting it at between 60s and 70s, and even 80s. While PREMIUM TIMES indicated in its first reporting of his death that Mr Kyari’s age was unknown, Reuters said he was in his 70s.

Some local broadcast stations like the AIT said Mr Kyari was born in 1938, an estimate that echoed the Wikipedia’s entry that said he was 81.

The social media was also locked in fierce arguments about Mr Kyari’s age.

But information obtained by PREMIUM TIMES from multiple records showed that Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, a Tuesday.

He had his early and secondary education in Nigeria and obtained at least two degrees in England. First, he obtained a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Warwick in early 1980s before proceeding to the University of Cambridge for his Master’s degree in law. He was called to the Nigerian bar in the mid-1980s.


Indeed, throughout his five-year streak as Mr Buhari’s chief of staff, Mr Kyari did not receive birthday wishes that inundate administrative officials and politicians of his status.

Also, the press statements announcing his appointment in 2015 and his reappointment in 2019 did not also indicate his date of birth or age.

The former Abba Kyari was born 1938 and some misinformed fellows went on Wikipedia to alter the DOB of the younger Kyari.

Many idiots who and are still celebrating the death of a father justified his death by saying "oh well, he's 82, he should die"

What exactly do we need his date of birth for? What is more important now is his date of death

The Gudu cemetery is not a military cemetery. It is for civilians. It has a Muslim section and a Christian section. The military cemetery is along airport road at Karanmajiji. His DOB is confusing like many public servants because he used football age. But does it matter now that he is late? Allow the man rest.

It is. Almost all the politicians in Nigeria carry fake DOB, including buhari himself. Tinubu is even worse off in the lying game. How could his late wife be 4 years older than him, someone he once claimed was his younger sister's age mate? Buhari's younger sister is older than him, how possoble shocked.

It doesn't surprise me anymore when they tell us lies openly because it's their way of life. Sadly, they're all grand fathers, wondering what legacy would they leave behind for their children, grandchildren and blind followers

Lying about age - an agelong evil that has gained the the approval of many, and hence has become a norm. The worst form of glorifed vice I have ever seen, certified, adopted and practised even by the elect; and to pacify its gravity, it was christened Football age, as against real age. What a way to cremate a conscience! God have Mercy!

lemme ask you a question, how old do you think fani kayode senior( Femi's dad) would have been by now, had he still been alive? Abba kyari worked in Fani Kayode's Law firm when he came back from his scholarship-backed studies in the UK. Femi fani kayode, said he had known abba kyari for 40 years....same man is said to be in his 60s? Common.

Abba Kyari was not 82 years. Look at the picture of his children and read FFK’s comments on how the studied at Cambridge together. He was 67years.

Fani Kayode maybe be right cos Kyari finished his Law program in 1980 and they must have met as undergrads before dat time. So 1978-2020 is over 40 years. And mind u they later worked in Fani's father law firm. No age discrepancy here.
