When people objected to the appointment of Mrs. Amina Zakari as head of INEC’s committee that would be in charge of the “secretariat for collation of results” of the last presidential election, both the presidency and Zakari lied that Buhari and Zakari had no family relationship until I exploded their duplicitous mendacity in a January 5, 2019 update. (I’ll come to that shortly).
Well, many people don’t seem to notice that Buhari has compensated Mrs. Zakari for helping him to rig the 2019 election; He appointed her biological son by the name of Ahmed Rufa'i Zakari as his new Special Adviser on Infrastructure, a pointless, previously non-existent position specifically created to pay back Mrs. Zakari. Mr. Zakari holds the traditional title of San Turakin Kazaure.
Buhari also reappointed Mrs. Zakari’s brother, Suleiman Hussaini Adamu, as Minister of Water Resources. Adamu and Mrs. Zakari are full siblings, i.e., they share the same father and mother. They are the children of Alhaji Hussaini Adamu (who was emir of Kazaure) and Hajia Hafsatu Hussaini Adamu. The current emir of Kazaure, Alhaji Najib Hussaini Adamu, is their older brother with whom they’re also full siblings.
The immediate past commissioner of education in Jigawa State, Mrs. Rabih Eshaq, is also their younger sister (again, same father, same mother.) So the same family basically monopolizes political appointments in the state. And it’s all due to their Buhari/Daura connections.
Their mother, Hajiya Hafsatu, is the daughter of Alhaji Jibril Daura, a Daura native. More than that, though, Buhari’s biological sister was once married to Mrs. Zakari’s father. That makes her Buhari’s niece. The Oxford Dictionary defines a niece as, “A daughter of one's brother or sister, or of one's brother-in-law or sister-in-law.” Mrs. Zakari’s father was Buhari’s brother-in-law.
But that’s not all. As I pointed out in my Jan. 5, 2019 update, at some point in his youth, Buhari, who lost his father at a young age, came under the guardianship of Mrs. Zakari’s father, the late Alhaji Hussaini Adamu. Buhari continues to nurture his relationship with the Hussaini Adamu family. When he was PTF boss, for instance, he got Mrs. Zakari a consultancy contract with Afri-Projects Consortium (APC), “the sole manager of the PTF projects.”
When Goodluck Jonathan asked Buhari for a candidate for INEC commissionership, he nominated Mrs. Zakari. In my update, I said, “This fact, as I pointed out in my Saturday Tribune column, isn’t enough to vitiate her neutrality. After all, Jonathan defeated Buhari in 2011 while she was INEC commissioner. But deceiving the world by concealing the nature and depth of her relationship with Buhari shows that she’s up to no good this time around.” My predictions materialized.
The appointment of Mrs. Zakari’s son to an utterly purposeless position isn’t just a reward for her help in perpetrating unexampled electoral fraud on Buhari’s behalf; it’s also a continuation of Buhari’s trademarked bald-faced nepotism.

We like it like that

Do you expect Buhari to appoint Atuku's son or Walter Onnoghen's son instead?

Settlement for sure.

For those of you saying we like it like that, did you not read where Jonathan asked Buhari for a candidate??

That's a true democrat, despite his corruption flaws.

The terrible nepotic precedents being set by this administration will plague this nation for years to come.
Time will come when a sitting president will appoint only his immediate family members in juicy positions and tell you it is those he trust, nothing will happen.

I always tell people, there will always be Nigeria after Buhari.

This man has a mental problem

Selfishness

Wailers are really making ignorance fashionable. Perhaps PMB should have appointed his enemies as his SA

Printerscanner:

You are busy calling other people. If you are appointed, what will happen?

Charleys:

Those supporting brazen nepotism should remember that when it rains, it falls on all.

irrespective of one's political divide, appointments should be solely on merit.

May God save Nigeria

I really don't know how and when we got to this point. Everything is not about wailers and IPOBs. We have only one country and if we don't build this country, nobody will build it for us.

Let's call a spade a spade !

When you become the Gov or President tomorrow. Appoint a foreigner as your SA . Appoint those who don't share same political ideology with you.

This speaks volumes of the kind of person Buhari is. He is loyal to those who are loyal to him. I don't want to comment on the politician in him, because he is far from being one; but the man has nobility of character in that he never abandons his friends when he is established. He helps them up. This is truly endearing.

Now to the issue of the SA on infrastructure and minister of water resources. The minister of water resources spent all his working life in water engineering, so he cannot be faulted on competence. I don't know much about the SA, so I can't say anything about him. My only take is that we should use whatever positions we find ourselves to empower our people legally. This is something the northerners have been doing since 1960, that is how they continue to dominate the landscape.

I'm not a Buhari fan but there are some things we shouldn't kill ourselves for.
OP said the office is purposeless but he is complaining. Even if the office is purposeful we will still hear talk.

Please can someone tell me who Krushner is to the POTUS again?

BuhariApC is both disaster and fraud

Farooq the new bloggers in town

What's wrong with that, is Amina Zakari's son not a Nigerian?

See them,hungry kill u there

You can appoint whoever you like. But don't pretend they are not your family
and friends when convenient e.g during the election and change your mind later after the election.

Some fools think nation building is just a matter of electing a ‘Buhari’ to ‘phight kwarruption’...and while he’s at it, appoint every last one of his immediate and extended family into juicy gov’t positions!

Hypnotism:
I don tire for Ipob complain over everything, this people must definitely be cursed.

Mod ....caution this guy...


I will start my own o

We will overcome this government that I know for sure

What's this one saying? Was Amina Zakari appointment done under PMB adminstration?

That's not being a democrat, it is being foolish, how can you ask your enemy for food, when you know he may poison it.

@ OP...I pray this woman matter no go kill you.

And so what?

So the only people that share his ideology are people in his cycles.
What happened to technocrats that have no political parties.?

Buhari will leave in 2023. I envy the next president.
He would have a lot of rope.
Even me sef would apoint my family members from A-Z.
They are the only people I trust. Nepotism be damned.

it's gov't for the pple for the people and for northerners alone....cheers
