In media interviews recently, Chief of Army Staff Tukur Buratai said insecurity was being confronted across board in the Buhari administration. If the NSA’s claim is proven, Mr Kyari’s action would have made a mockery of Nigerian executive powers, which make it illegal to disobey a lawful directive of the president, on whose pleasure everyone down the executive chain of command — including members of the military and other law enforcement outfits — serves.
Mr Kyari’s influence was also a matter of serious concern for Aisha Buhari, the president’s wife, who has repeatedly lashed out at the chief of staff for allegedly ‘caging’ her husband and rendering her redundant in his government.Last November, PREMIUM TIMES obtained documents showing Mr Kyari overriding Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo on a crucial decision over ruga projects, a series of economic palliatives designed to curtail the herdsmen crisis.
At the time the contract was discussed, Mr Monguno said, there as an understanding that International Golden Group, a Dubai-based defence and security dealer, was the firm favoured to land the contract, whose value was undisclosed even though security sources described it as ‘lucrative’.
