Former Senate President Bukola Saraki has congratulated Prof. Ibrahim Gambari on his appointment as President Muhammadu Buhari’s chief of staff.
Gambari was unveiled as the new Chief of Staff of the President on Wednesday at the maiden virtual meeting of the Federal Executive Council.
In a statement later in the day, Saraki described the diplomat as a ‘decent’ man and urged the public to support him in his new office.
“I congratulate Prof. Ibrahim Agboola Gambari on his appointment as Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari,” he wrote.
“Prof. Gambari is a decent man, a cerebral academic, disciplined diplomat and he is coming in with the necessary pedigree that will help him to do well on the job.
“I have no doubt that he will succeed on this onerous assignment. I urge all Nigerians to give him all the support that he needs to perform in office.”
