Buhari’s Supporters Back Directive To Ministers To Report To Kyari

By Editor

Supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari have dismissed as misplaced concerns over the directive to ministers to channel their issues to him through the chief of staff, Mallam Abba Kyari.

The supporters under the aegis of the Buhari Media Organisation in a statement made available to GreenWhiteGreen asserted that the directive was the standard practice all over the world.

In a statement signed by its Chairman Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy Madueke, the group said critics of the directive are either uninformed or are hoodwinkers. “For the avoidance of doubt, no new power has been conferred on the office of the Chief of Staff except that the President has chosen to run an administration that is better organized.

“We also wish to remind critics of this directive that in developed societies, especially the United States of America from where we copied our presidential system of government, the office of the Chief of Staff is key to driving the successful delivery of good governance to the citizens, and Nigeria’s case cannot be different.

“Additionally, the President, in his wisdom, is desirous of avoiding the staccato arrangement of the past that was disorderly and uncoordinated, even as it hampered the smooth running of government activities.”

BMO noted that President Buhari runs a more organised and streamlined system, aimed at ensuring a seamless operation of government activities, without unnecessary delays or hasty decision-making.

“We, therefore, implore Nigerians not to be taken in by the antics of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and a few disgruntled elements who never see anything good in an administration that is not only people-oriented but is focused at fighting corruption, improving the economy and combating the insurgency. The PDP should not equate its profligate era with the Buhari administration that is focused on rebuilding the country.”
