Why Abba Kyari is Nigeria’s de facto president (Opinion)

By: Prof. Farooq Kperogi

I’ve said this b4 many times in my columns & social media posts. He isn’t even hiding it anymore.

See this memo that’s going viral on social media. Although the office of the CoS to the President isn’t in the constitution, Kyari signed one of the most important memos on the most pressing issue in the nation. He didn’t say, “The president has directed me to…”; he simply said, “The president has directed…” because he IS the president. Buhari is barely aware he exists & hardly knows what’s going on in the nation.

I laughed at people who expected Kyari to not be reappointed. Why would he not reappoint himself? He is Mamman Daura’s boy and acts on his behalf. Daura is Buhari’s nephew and benefactor who micro-manages him, but he’s now in his 80s, so Kyari acts for him.

You had been warned!
