The Presidency has reacted to the circulated reports that President Muhammadu Buhari canceled about 150 memos authorized by his former Chief of Staff, the late Mallam Abba Kyari
The reaction came last night through a statement signed by the Senior Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu.
Shehu urges Nigerians to ignore the reports as none of the reports quoted a known source.
According to Shehu, “The attention of the Presidency has been drawn to media reports alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari has canceled a number of memos and appointments signed off by his former Chief of Staff. Not surprisingly, these reports have quoted unnamed sources.
“There is not a grain of truth in these reports and Nigerians should please ignore the insinuations behind them.
“President Buhari was duly re-elected by Nigerians in February 2019. He has not and will never cede to anyone else, that power and trust are given to him by the Nigerian people.”
There was a circulated report on some Nigerian media (The West African Pilot News not included) three days ago that President Muhammadu Buhari may have directed his new Chief of Staff, Professor Ibrahim Gambari to cancel all appointments and memo signed by his former Chief of Staff, Mallam Abba Kyari.
