Abba Kyari makes Osunbade look worse than Aikhomu! He and General Buhari have turned pastor to Special Assistant on Burial Affairs and tradermoni Matters. Yoruba say, omase o! I hope General @MBuhari won’t order @ProfOsinbajo to clear from Kyari!#FreeLeahSharibu #RenosDarts

From time immemorial, the chief of staff has always been the gate pass to the president of any country.
Some are even asking why not the vice-president?🙄 The president only asked Abba Kyari to do his job and for the ministers to follow due process. How's this our problem? pic.twitter.com/z17PatBAx9

Buhari handed over all power to Abba Kyari while he runs in background like a service.

I have a question, what about Osinbajo the VP?

Is he only relevant in this administration for tourism, visitations and disbursement? A prof, a SAN, a pastor? #Nigeria pic.twitter.com/XuRFuQdp6V
