The New Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Professor Ibrahim Gambari, said Wednesday he would deploy all within his ability to the service of the President.
Gambari, who formally unveiled by the President in Abuja, is taking over the position left by Late ABBA Kyari who denied of complications from coronavirus infection on April 17, 2020.
He spoke when he appeared as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
According to the diplomat, who was at a point was Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, the new appointment is not about the Chief Of Staff but about the President.
In his telephone interview, the new Chief of Staff said his plan is just to do his job, which is to “provide the President with the best advice to organize the office and to make sure that the machinery runs smoothly”.
The ardent scholar said Nigerians should expect a very loyal, dedicated, and efficient service to the President, adding that he would be making sure that President Buhari’s priorities are carried out efficiently and properly and broadly.
Earlier on at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Professor Gambari told newsmen that what the President requires of him is loyalty, competence, and support.
The diplomat noted that his sole guiding principle as Chief of Staff will be to serve the President to the best of his ability.
He thanked the Almighty Allah and President Buhari for giving him the opportunity to serve in the new capacity as Chief of Staff.
