Ibrahim Gambari, Chief Of Staff Designate To Buhari Is One Of Nigeria’s Top Diplomat, Public Servant & Technocrat But At The Height Of His Career, He Also Found Himself At The Centre Of Some Controversial Moments In Contemporary Nigeria’s History

In 1995 As Nigeria’s Ambassador To The United Nations During The Ogoni Crisis When Ken Saro-Wiwa & The Ogoni 9 Were Executed By The Abacha Regime, Gambari Was Accused Of Not Doing Enough To Prevent The Execution & Defending Abacha’s Actions Against International Condemnation

His Alleged Role In The Events Of The Dark Years Of Abacha Junta Was To Later Come To Haunt Him 14 Years After When The Late Yar’dua Appointed Him As Chairman Of The Niger Delta Summit To Organise Peace Talks Between Nigeria’s Govt & Militants In The Oil-Producing Niger Delta

In 2008, Nigeria Was In Crisis As MEND Blew Up Oil Pipelines And Kidnapped Foreign Oil Workers, A Campaign That Started During Obasanjo’s Tenure And Increased When Yar’dua Became President. The Economy Suffered And Yar’dua Proposed Truce With Militants Leading To Amnesty

But Gambari’s Appointment Heat Up The Polity As Some Niger Delta Leaders, Including The Main Militant Group MEND, Rejected His Involvement In The Proposed Summit, Saying He Had Defended Abacha’s Actions Against International Condemnation At The Time Of Saro-Wiwa’s Execution

Gambari Later Resigned In A Letter To Yar’dua Stating”..My Name Has Become The Issue In Place Of An Attempt At Finding A Just & Lasting Solution To The Crisis In The Niger Delta. In Light Of This, I Wish To Be Excused As The Chairman Of The Steering Committee Of The Summit,”
