The Emir of Ilorin and Chairman, Kwara State Council of Chiefs, Mai-Martaba Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has hailed with thanks to President Muhammadu Buhari, the appointment of Professor Ibrahim Gambari as his new Chief of Staff.
The new presidential top aide hails from the traditional domain of the prominent Emir of Northern Nigeria and is currently the Wambai of Ilorin Emirate.
Alhaji Sulu-Gambari, in a statement Tuesday signed by his Media Aide, Mallam Abdulazeez Arowona, described the appointment as great honour to the entire people of Ilorin Emirate and Kwarans at large.
He noted that the choice of the former diplomat would be justified by outstanding contributions, administrative experience, scholarship and excellence which he would inject into the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government towards ensuring good governance, democratic dividends as well as shared prosperity in the nation.
While congratulating Professor Gambari on the new appointment, the monarch wished him a successful tenure in office even as he expressed confidence in his ability to justify the confidence reposed in him by President Muhammadu Buhari.
“He will surely bring to fore his wealth of experience as an academician, former Minister, former Diplomat, former University Chancellor, Prince of the renown Alimi dynasty, family man and community leader of high repute.
