Prof. Ibrahim Gambari : Keeping a date with destiny and fatalism

1.8k


 

For the new Chief of staff, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, his appointment is nothing but purely an act of fatalism.

Indeed fatalism has played out in his life. Yes, it is a presidential pronouncement of an appointment but nonethelss fatal. In 2015 when Gambari presented an award to President Muhammadu Buhari little did he know that fate and destiny were looming “menacingly and fortuitously”over him.

About five years after like a bolt from the blue,a prodigious but pleasant event happened — a call to greater and higher service to humanity and the nation.  On Wednesday, May 13, 2020, the Ilorin prince and world-class diplomat and emeritus professor, Ibrahim Agboola Gambari, was announced as the Chief of Staff to Buhari by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr Boss Mustapha at the first virtual Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.

No doubt,Prof. Gambari’s appointment is an attestation to his impeccable and nonpariel public service records and competence.

From Persecondnews, this is wishing the newest, nonpariel Chief of Staff, a resounding and successful tenure.
