The Presidency has warned the public on the emergence of fake social media accounts claiming to represent the new Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Gambari.

Gambari was on Tuesday announced as the new Chief of Staff to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), after the death of Abba Kyari who formerly held the position.

Since the announcement was made, many fake social media accounts have sprung up in his name. Some of them include ‘Prof. Ibrahim Gambari’, ‘Professor Gambari Ibrahim’ and so on.

In reaction, presidential aide Bashir Ahmad advised the public to disregard such accounts because the new Chief of staff does not operate any social media account.

He also revealed that if and when Gambari decides to open social media accounts, such information will be communicated to the public.

“DISCLAIMER: All the twitter accounts bearing Professor Ibrahim Gambari, the Chief of Staff to President @MBuhari are fake, the new CoS doesn’t have an account on twitter or on any social media platform. If he wishes to have one, it will be communicated properly", he tweeted.
