Gambari’s appointment great asset to Nigeria, Africa, says Ban Ki-Moon

Former United Nations (UN) Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon has described the appointment of Prof. Ibrahim Gambari as Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari as a great asset to Nigeria and Africa at large.

In a congratulatory letter dated May 18, 2020 and made available to The Guardian by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media & Publicity, Garba Shehu, the South Korean said: “Your appointment is a great asset not to the President of Nigeria but also your country, Nigeria, and Africa in a broader sense.”

Similarly, the United Kingdom High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, expressed delight with the appointment.

She said the mission looks forward to working closely with the CoS on ‘”our shared agenda in the challenging COVID-19 times.”
