AGF, DSS Boss, Governors, Others Abandon Duty Posts to Attend Buhari Son’s Engagement

AGF, DSS Boss, Governors, Others Abandon Duty Posts to Attend Buhari Son’s Engagement

The attorney-general of the federation who doubles as the minister of justice, Abubakar Malami and the director-general of the Department of State Service (DSS), Yusuf Magaji Bichi, had enough time on their hands on Sunday to attend the engagement ceremony of President Muhammadu Buhari’s son to the Emir of Bichi’s daughter in Kano.

Nigerians have marveled at the insensitivity of the top government functionaries who left their respective duty posts to attend such a personal matter in their numbers.

“Despite the challenges that this country is facing, for which they have all failed to provide a semblance of solution, they think abandoning their respective public responsibilities to attend a very personal engagement is the thing to do. What a country of sycophants!” said an angry Ishaku Ado Gwandu in a post to Nigerian Sketch.

Another report said the governor of Jigawa was leader of the delegation.
