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 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;

“Gambari enslaved himself to please his paymasters. Now, 13 years later, the shackles are still tied round his neck. BOOTLICKING GROVELLERS fail to learn.”- @FemAdesina on Ibrahim Gambari July 12, 2008.

Today, Femi is the one BOOTLICKING the Gambari he called a BOOTLICKER!

Femi Adesina accused Gambari of bootlicking then due to the position Gambari occupied then.
Femi Adesina is now in the position to boot lick the same Gambari.
Will Femi Adesina resign the post or resign to fate bootlicking Gambari?

Though I’m not a fan and not a marlian, but he has said the very fact about we Nigerians.

Chai! Internet no get secret o!

Those were days when Adeshina back column in the Sun were delight to read.Just like the Festus Keyamo versus Akpabio debacle in the Ministry of Niger Delta.

The internet is the karma of the modern world. Your yansh go just dey expose.All politicians are the same.Femi Adeshina over to you.

Little wonder Femi Adesina refused to announce Gambari's appointment and begged the SGF to do it

Reno no get work these days, someone has been appointed chikena, move on with your life and stop being a busybody

Adesina records opening

They are all the same.
Nah dem-dem.
Nothing good will ever come out from any Gambari or Adeshina.
Ones you are working with this administration then your own don finish be that.
A sane person would have resigned a long time ago but we Nigerians just love ass-licking.

I won't still say a word,
E get reason

So, what it means now is that in no distant time Adesina will be specialist in BOOTLICKING??

He talks too much...he still exhibits dat till now.

Pigs and idiots are coming

This is the beginning of the end of femi adeshina, Fulani's don't forgive. He is surely going to pay if not heavily.

MelesZenawi:
Adesina is no different from awolowo from attitude.

Avoid such people.

Senseless post.

Egungu nah Express you enter so oh...

Yerima wasn’t playing he said fFemi can turn black to white

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.

But he's doing same thing now. Shame!

Hahahahahahaha and now Femi must inturn lick Gambaris balls if he wants to eat food you can't make this shit up..Don't talk shit till you have become a man of means like me

I don't want to be in Femi Adesina's shoes right now. I bet he did not see it coming. Hope Amb. Gambari finds it in his heart to forgive and forget.

Average Nigerians are hypocrites. We love to complain about corruption but when the corruption works in our favour, we called it connection


Me don stop following legal until all Nigeria leaders stop stealing and packing money that doesn't belong to them abroad

I am not surprised, Femi is a two tongued snake.
