The national body of the All Progressives Youth Forum (APYF) has commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his choice of the renowned diplomat and academic, Professor Ibrahim Agboola Gambari as the new Chief of Staff.
In a statement released in Abuja, the Forum notes that the rich pedigree and credentials of Professor Gambari testified to the thoroughness of Mr. President in carefully selecting those who will support him in his consistent effort to deliver good governance to the Nigerian people.
“We as a front line youth group have always championed a mix of the wisdom of elders with the energy and idealism of the young as a precursor to our growth and development as a country. The appointment of the elder statesman to such a position at this trying moment in the history of our country clearly supports our position. We therefore congratulate Mr. President on this choice,” a part of the statement read.
While congratulating the new appointee, APYF said it has the unwavering belief in the capacity of Prof Gambari to discharge the responsibilities of his new office in a most spectacular manner.
The forum therefore wishes the Chief of Staff a rewarding time in the service of the President and the Nigerian nation; while pledging the support of progressive youths across the country towards ensuring his success in this new assignment.
