Pliant Senate President, Lawan, Takes Over As Buhari’s ADC

Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, on Wednesday hijacked the responsibilities of Yusuf Dodo as aide-de-camp (ADC) to president Muhammadu Buhari from him.

Lawan has come under heavy criticism from members of the public owing to the submissive and amenable disposition of the senate under him to the executive, a development that has earned the 9th assembly the rubber stamp tag.

He’s viewed by many as an obsequious senate president who will do anything to please Buhari.

In viral pictures online, Lawan, in an obsequious manner, was seen pulling out a chair for Buhari.

Lawan’s action of setting up the Buhari’s seat is the responsibility of the president’s aide-de-camp (ADC).

The office of the ADC is saddled with the task of providing security and protection for the president and his family in conjunction with other security agencies.

The ADC also attends to the personal needs of the president and other matters regarding his functions as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

However, when Buhari met with the leadership of the national assembly on Wednesday, the senate president hijacked one of the ADC’s responsibilities.

BREAKING: President Muhammadu Buhari Makes Fresh Appointment

In some of the pictures from the meeting, Lawan is seen assisting the president to take his seat despite the fact that Dodo, Buhari’s ADC, was within touching distance.

The pictures show Dodo, a lieutenant-colonel with the Nigerian army, making his way to get to his principal while Lawan was helping out the president.

Dodo was appointed by the president in January after Mohammed Abubakar, his erstwhile ADC, was nominated for a promotion course.
