We brought you a report earlier that President Muhammadu Buhari may have directed his new Chief of Staff, Professor Ibrahim Agboola Gambari to cancel all appointments and approvals made by the late Chief of staff Abba Kyari.
Though no reason was given for the President’s alleged action, however, reports indicated that no less than 150 memos without the President’s authorization may have been uncovered.
But Presidency, when contacted for clarification declined to comment on the report.
Kyari succumbed to the ravaging coronavirus in a Lagos hospital after testing positive to the pandemic prevailing across the globe with the number of victims steadily rising in Nigeria.
Many Nigerians has taken to social media media to react to the development.
How can Abba Kyari alone approve over 150 memos without Buhari’s knowledge? Now the new Chief of Staff has been asked by Buhari to cancel all such memos. With this, those who got illegal memos from Kyari Better start running away now. Ndi ara!

"President Buhari speaks tough, cancels all the bills signed by Abba Kyari.
Have you now agreed that Abba Kyari was in charge?
If Buhari was alive, will Abba Kyari be signing bills? That's to tell you that Aisha is in charge now & on revenge mission"~Mazi Nnamdi KANU
