Why Africa may keep struggling
This is Retired Brigadier Abba Kyari. He is President Buhari's Chief of Staff.
Abba Kyari was Military Governor of North-Central State from 28 May 1967 - July 1974 (Seven years)!
He was born in 1938 and is now 80 years.
Get this right, Abba Kyari is 80 years. He was appointed Governor at 29 years in 1967 (51 years ago) and he is still in government as Chief of Staff to the President.
If you are a youth in Nigeria, ask yourself what went wrong. Ask yourself why your country is still being ruled by those who ruled it before you were born. Ask yourself why a man of 80 years who was governor at 29 should still be among those in charge of the affairs of Nigeria.
