Aisha, Abba Kyari's Daughter: My Father Never Drove Till He Died by obembet(f): 2:48pm On May 04, 2020
Aisha, daughter of Abba Kyari, late chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, says her father never drove a car till he passed away.

In a touching tribute published on ThisDay, titled ‘My daddy, my best friend’, Aisha described her late father as an outstanding personality whose wealth of experience cuts across various spheres of life.

She said it was however, amusing that despite his exposure, he could not drive a car until his demise.

“This may sound odd but my beloved daddy couldn’t drive a car! He never learnt how to drive for a day in his entire life,” she wrote.

She also went on to explain how her late father was largely “misunderstood” and “mischievously misrepresented” by some Nigerians, despite his contributions to humanity and nation-building.

“My dad was terribly misunderstood and arguably mischievously misrepresented. Even his age was never gotten right from the day he became Chief of staff till the day he died. My dad died at the age of 67. He was often mistaken for the late Brigadier Abba Kyari who was indeed in his 80’s,” she added.

According her, the decision of the late chief of staff not to defend himself against critics was to enable him concentrate on his major assignment of serving his principal and the country.

“For clarity, my dad was more than capable of defending himself. The reason he didn’t is that it would have distracted him from his primary assignment of serving his principal and by extension, his country,” Aisha wrote.

TheCable had reported how Kyari died from COVID-19 complications on April 17, a few weeks after he had tested positive for the novel disease, following an official trip to Germany and the UK.

Aisha, Kyari’s eldest daughter, had made headlines for calling out her later father’s critics.

Great epistle from a cerebral daughter of a cerebral dad.

As for the misrepresentation, how come everyone your dad had a problem with was eased out of government? Including that fine-face Winifred Oyo-Ita, the cerebral Ibe Kachikwu (who had a first class performance) and Kemi Adeosun? Babagana Monguno would have been eased out as well if Buhari was not stubborn on certain issues. Osinbajo would have been fired if it was constitutionally allowed. Your dad undermined the office of the Vice-President several times. History has that on record.

Your dad has done his bit, you do not need to defend him on any issue; time would defend him eventually just as time is showing that Ganduje is a poor leader, less than a month after deposing an Emir.

Is that an achievement?

At least he bought cars. What of folks who never bought wheel till their death.

RIP to the Man.
Since you can't tell us how much he stole while alive, Let's pretend and move ahead.
