" As far as we are concerned, the president’s principal adviser, his nephew, is one nonentity called Mamman Daura.
“Then there is his Chief of Staff [Abba Kyari], who was brought up by Mamman Daura.
“And the scoundrel who is the Secretary to the Government of Federation [Babachir David].
“Then most of the incompetent ministers, whom are not cut out to work harmoniously with the legislature.
“And of course, there is the unfortunate additional bad luck of Buhari being surrounded by his own relations who are not politicians.
“For instance, Mamman Daura, virtually runs the government. He has veto power.
“There have been instances when Buhari gave written approval for things to be done, and that man threw the paper away.
“He has become such a tyrant in the Presidency. He is a nephew to Buhari.
“His father was the elder brother of Buhari.
“Although their age difference is about three years, his father is an elder brother to Buhari and they grew up together.
“[Abba Kyari] was brought up by Mamman Daura. His father left him with Mamman Daura to go to Borno, his original state where he was a village head.
“And for all intents and purposes, he is a son of Mamman Daura. He is now the chief of staff to Buhari.
“Then [Kabir Daura] the personal assistant to Buhari himself, is the son of Mamman Daura.
“And the girl [Aisha Abubakar] who was picked out of nowhere from Sokoto. She is not a member of the APC. She has nothing to do with anybody.
“She was picked and made a minister by Mamman Daura and Buhari because her mother is Buhari’s sister.
“So it is really a contradiction for Buhari to have, for example a nephew of his, the son of his elder sister as the Minister of Water Resources [Hadi Sirika].
“He has another niece of his, the elder sister of [Sirika], who is now a national commissioner in the INEC, Amina Zakari.
“Buhari nominated her even before he became president when Jonathan asked him to nominate somebody to represent the North West in INEC.
“He chose that woman.
“Unfortunately for the country and for Buhari’s legacy himself, he has packed the Presidency with his own relations.
“There are many people who are his own cousins in the Presidency.
“In my own understanding of history and politics, this is what you call nepotism. And if you are against corruption, you cannot be nepotistic,” Junaid lamented.
