Ms. Aisha Abba-Kyari, the daughter of President Muhammadu Buhari’s Chief of Staff, has been appointed as an assistant vice president at the Nigerian Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) under secretive and controversial circumstances, TheScoop can confirm from highly placed sources within the organisation.

Why it matters: Ms. Abba-Kyari’s appointment violates set procedure at the NSIA which is the legally constituted agency that manages Nigeria’s excess crude oil revenues.



The role was not publicly advertised, contrary to the expectations for such a position.
An insider said: “She clearly does not meet the criteria for the role.”
According to information available to TheScoop, Abba-Kyari had just about 5 years working experience at the National Integrated Power Project where she worked up until February 2019 when she got the NSIA role.
She has been appointed Assistant Vice President (AVP) Level 3, which is the highest level in the organization. The average working experience in that level is 10 years.

What we know: Insiders at the NSIA were infuriated by the appointment. A few of the high level persons privy to the recruitment initially refused to interview Ms. Abba-Kyari. One of such persons include an Executive Director, Stella Ojekwe-Onyejeli who vehemently rejected the suggestion, describing it as “ridiculous” and citing the underwhelming credentials of Ms. Abba-Kyari. The ED was however arm twisted into playing along as the pending confirmation of her appointment to become a second term ED, became an instrument of blackmail. Her appointment was eventually confirmed sometime in March 2019 after she acquiesced. Halima Buba, a board member at the NSIA who was also invited to observe the process, refused to take part.

Benefits: Ms. Abba-Kyari will receive an annual package of of about 32 million Naira. A brand new official car has also been assigned to her. (Most of the other appointees only get their vehicles after six months into their job).

Bottomline: No surprises here. This is not the first time the Buhari government is involved in a secret recruitment scandal involving relatives of highly placed persons in his cabinet. A similar one occurred at the Central Bank of Nigeria in 2017 involving children of some cabinet ministers and a nephew of the president, without repercussions in spite of the anti-corruption rhetoric of his administration.

Gbam, it is called the more you see, the less you understand, I pity those trusting these criminals in power called politicians, trust Nigeria politicians at your own peril, they are all useless and don't give a fvck if the masses are suffering from hunger and starvation

GavelSlam:
She graduated in 1997 yet you claim she has only 5 years working experience.

Una well don.

Year of graduation has no correlation with the years of experience.

Not everyone gets a job after graduation
Some women don't start working until after they finish raising their kids to high school level.

Haters will say , she got it because of her father

My guy Hafa you well so ni? U tried to make sense but I couldn't quite grasp Cos I don't see anything I did to warrant any attack on me

Nepotism is the worst form of corruption.

Yes they do. Almost every year. There's even one ongoing right now. Application deadline ends April 30th

And some of those harrassing us on this forum and defending this Govt are on NPOWER N30k a month while this girl earns a salary of N2.7m monthly.
Imagine how many NPOWER personnel just her one month salary can pay and the position requires minimum of 10 years working experience while she has 5 years as NIPP staff.

Why is this yet to get to the FP?
