Mark my words. Femi Adeshina will eventually be disgraced. He sounds so pathetic these days. The hunter that will get lost, will forgets his whistle.

I doubt it. The man had reached the zenith of his career as MD/EiC of the Sun Publishing Group. The only position higher than that is that of publisher. Without ever meeting Buhari, Femi had always written to support him through his column when many other journalists were writing against him because of his infamous Decree 4. I think the only other journalist that did same was Dele Shobowale. Now Buhari is not a person who forgets a good deed very easily nor does he forget a bad deed. That is why no one, not even our delectable Aisha, can convince him to get rid of Femi Adesina, talkless of Professor Gambari. Try and recall how when he was sick, they attempted to get rid of his photographer and the President personally asked him to be brought back. Femi's job is not threatened by Gambari's appointment. I would just hope he gets something else after this administration because the guy is a damn good journalist. I don't think any journalist has been privileged to speak for a President for up to 5 years in our country.

PS: In future, it would be more sensible to have a PR person as a Presidential spokesman; career journalists do not necessarily have to be given this position. Lauretta Onochie and Abike Dabiri would have done the job better than Femi.

That is not the way the proverb goes but like this;
The dog that will get lost is the one that doesn't listen to the Hunter's whistle.
It is usually invoked to caution and individual who seems to be turning down someone's advise and insisting on his own understanding.

He's trying to teach you that he's a very good researcher. Accusing him of no job is lame. History to him is the way to go. Forget history, forget your mission on earth.

There are three unique people in the job of journalism: those who make news, those who write/report news and those who read the news. He has done his job, he reported the news by doing research, now you read his news. Tell me, who is the jobless one here? Be sincere...

"Gambari enslaved himself to please his slavemaster"... To be sincere with you, that attribute qualify him to be the new COS. Leaders do like someone that will be their puppet.... Adesina is doing his job perfectly well... Those of you condemning him will do more than that when you get to such position.

The painful and frustrating part is that people seem not to care... Our leaders, the masses are thieves, tribablist, most don't tolerate other religions aside from theirs etc.

a chief of staff is a special aide just like Adesina, they are on the same level and payroll, Gambari isn't more powerful than Adesina and that's why he outrightly refused to congratulate him, even garba shehu was very reluctant

People shouldn't think Gambari would be as influential as Abba kyari... Abba kyari was one of Buhari's money bag similar to Issa funtua so they enjoy special previledge higher than the office or position they occupy, in the case of Gambari he is just going to be a Loyal political appointee


.
Just look at how you're ignorantly vomiting blunder and what pains me more is that you're very confident about it.

Mr. Man, a Chief of Staff is the boss of all aides. That man is a boss to Femi and can call for his head unless the President intervenes.

under which section of the constitution? Chief of Staff isn't even a recognized office in the Nigerian law, Obasanjo barely introduced it, even Yaradua didn't use one, in simple terms, chief of staff to the president means secretary to the office of the President, only SGF can fire Presidential Aides upon authority of the President, secetaries don't have the power to fire appointed staff or sign any fvcking documents, except to transmit documents to his principal buhari for authorization, the fact that Buhari allowed Abba Kyari to do and undo doesn't mean that's the norm

Records have shown that Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, in 2008, condemned Ibrahim Gambari for his support of dictatorial governments.

Mr Gambari, who was recently appointed as the new Chief of Staff to President Buhari, has come under criticism for his role in bolstering the gag on press freedom. The diplomat served as the Minister for External Affairs between Mega Churches In United States 1984 and 1985 under Mr Buhari who was a military head of state then.

Also, Mr Gambari worked for the late dictator, General Sani Abacha, whose regime saw to the victimisation of journalists and activists. One of the victims of the stifling of press freedom under Abacha was Ken Saro-Wiwa, a Nigerian journalist and environmental activist, who led a nonviolent campaign against environmental degradation of the land and waters of Ogoniland by the operations of the multinational petroleum industries.

Mr Saro-Wiwa was hanged in 1995 by the military dictatorship of General Sani Abacha. However, years after the killing, Mr Gambari defended the actions of late Abacha saying the killing was in the interest of the state.

Nevertheless, in a column published on July 12, 2008, Mr Adesina lampooned Mr Gambari. The article published on page 15 of Saturday Sun was titled “Gambari: the slap next time.”

In one of the paragraphs, Mr Adesina referred to the new Chief of Staff as a man who enslaved himself to please his paymasters.

“Gambari enslaved himself to please his paymasters. Now, 13 years later, the shackles are still tied round his neck. bootlicking grovellers fail to learn.”

Reacting to this, former Presidential spokesperson, Reno Omokri, shared a snippet of the column and criticised Mr Adesina who is now serving in the same administration with Mr Gambari.

Mr Omokri, who wrote on Saturday, said;

Please don't bring SGF into this matter because he doesn't work for the President, he works for the FG just like the Minister of Information too. Yes, Chief of Staff is an aide to the President and so also are Femi and co but Gambari is on a higher echelon, make no mistakes about that.

both Gambari and Adesina are both on same level take it or leave it, both are senior aides to the president and according to RMAFC they earn same pay , same package, non seniors the other, due to bureaucratic nature and lack of orderliness in Buhari's administration is why anybody would even think Chief of Staff holds special power outside organization of documents for the President and maintaining his schedules as authorized by him, and releasing internal memo signed by the president upon his order

each state has Chief of Staff, same with all ministers, Legislature and previous President like Jonathan and Obasanjo and never has one of their Chief of Staff assumed any power, they simply follow orders except Mr Kyari buhari's friend of 45 years
