We Served Fathers, We’ll Now Serve Their Children’, Nigerians Knock Tinubu Over Appointment Of Ganduje’s Son As REA Director

Nigerian tweeps have expressed their displeasure at the recent appointment of Umar Abdullahi Umar as the new Executive Director of the Rural Electrification Agency.

Umar is the son of former Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje. Ganduje is the current National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Umar’s appointment was announced on Thursday in a statement signed by Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, after the suspension of Ahmad Salihijo Ahmad, alongside three executive directors of the agency, from office.

Some Nigerians on social media have expressed the view that Umar’s appointment was a political compensation from the President to Ganduje’s family.

For instance, an X user, @DatIgalaGuy, wrote: “Children of Family and Friends. We have served the fathers, and will now be serving the children. No. 3 Ganduje’s son No. 5 Pius Akinyelure’s son.”
