Amina Muhammad Is Officially UN Deputy Secretary-general by Nobody:
Incoming UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Thursday announced Amina Mohammed as his Deputy Secretary->General.

Mr. Guterres made the announcement through the spokesman of the Secretary- General, Stephane Dujarric. Ms. Mohammed, Nigeria’s current Minister of Environment, was former UN Under-Secretary-General to outgoing UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on the 2030 Agenda for Development.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports that the secretary-general- designate also announced the appointment of two other women into top UN positions.

PREMIUM TIMES had exclusively reported Ms. Mohammed’s appointment. The Nigerian government later said it was yet to be formally informed .

NAN reports that Mr. Guterres had hinted on Monday after he took the oath of office that gender parity would be top on his agenda as the UN scribe.

The UN chief, who succeeds outgoing secretary-general Ban, will assume office on January 1, 2017, for the next five years.

Why then did Garba Shehu say otherwise the other day? PMB's media team really needs to know when to talk and when to remain silent.

African President = Buhari (A Nigerian)

Deputy President Of The World = Amina Muhammad (A Nigerian)



Some freedom fighters will cry to a Fulani terrorist in the UN for freedom from the zoo or for freedom of their so called hero.

Which either way. A Fulani terrorist from cursed north must be involved. grin grin grin grin

Congratulation to the incoming UN Secretary-General António Guterres, congratulation also to our own nigerian woman Amina Mohammed as Deputy Secretary-General.

Bidding the out going UN Secretary-General Mr. Ban Ki Moon him goodbye in advance.
Thanks to him for helping nigeria in many issues like UN gave nigeria money during 2015 election.
During Ebola issue, UN also came to rescue those countries.
But issue of syria is yet unsolved.

So credit should go to Buhari should anyone conquer his or her environment (in particular, this shameless APC environment) and succeeds?

This is a minister that people have been admiring for her sincerity.

Like seriously, I'm ashamed that I'm sharing nairaland membership with you.

There is a evil romance between white house and Aso rock. No wonder Obama lost is bid on Hilary Clinton. If not that Trump won, Obama is ready to enslave the southerners. Amina cannot get to that position without the intervention of that evil white house. But PMB and Obama should try hard, their evil agenda wont see the light of the day
