On Friday July 5, 2019, President Muhammadu Buhari made his first major appointments for his second term. The President gave the nod to Boss Mustapha and Abba Kyari to continue as Secretary to the Federal Government and Chief of Staff respectively. These are said to be positions meant for the President’s most trusted advisers. The operators of the so-called Kitchen Cabinet; where the beneficiaries of the Power and governance decisions in Aso Rock are determined.

He is omniscient and directs the affairs of the Nigerian state even while asleep. His word is law; his gesture carries more weight than the pronouncement of the Supreme Court. He is the Diviner, Mastermind and Executor of the ‘Acts of Aso Rock’. His powers are limitless; he holds the key to all appointments. He is sought after by the mighty and power seekers.

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has reappointed the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Boss Mustapha and the former Chief of Staff Abba Kyari.

Those who know his work ethic will testify that he arrives at the State House on most days well before most of the other members of staff and he is always one of the last ones to leave the office before heading to meet the President with various memoranda to be considered.

On the 24th June 2019, an unusual political activity took place in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory. A public demonstration staged by an obscure political group that gave its name as APC Concerned Nation Stakeholders led by an even more obscure figure called Dr. Symeon Chilagorom proclaimed that they were protesting against internal forces pulling down the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
