All the governors of Nigeria’s 36 states have congratulated and pledged their readiness to work with Professor Ibrahim Gambari, the new Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, and support him in his drive to make a positive difference in the area of leadership and governance.
In a collective congratulatory message to Gambari under the aegis of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), the governors said cooperation with Gambari was imperative because of prevailing circumstances in the country.
The letter, which was signed by the NGF Chairman and Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, read: “On behalf of the Thirty Six (36) democratically elected State Governors of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (FGN) under the platform of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), I write to congratulate you and to express our deep joy on your appointment to the exalted Office of the Chief of Staff to our President, General Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR.
