THE Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has said that Prof. Ibrahim Gambari’s appointment as the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari will help to reposition the nation.

IPMAN’s President, Mr Chinedu Okoronkwo, who made the assertion in a statement on Friday in Lagos, said that Gambari had all it would take to carry out the duties of the office.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the 75-year-old diplomat was formally announced as the Chief of Staff on May 13.

His appointment followed the death of  Malam Abba Kyari, who held the position until April 17.

“On behalf of the National Executives of IPMAN and its Board of Trustees,  I want to commend the president for picking Gambari as his Chief of Staff.

“Gambari has track record as an academic and diplomat who served Nigeria meritoriously in the past.

” We believe that he will bring his wealth of experience to bear in assisting the president to navigate the nation at this critical time the world is facing COVID-19 pandemic and fall in crude oil prices,” he said. (NAN)
