Truth is You can never Hide something forever.

Abba Kyari, the late chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari,
was 67 years old when he died last night, PREMIUM TIMES can now
authoritatively report.
Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, according to official
records obtained by PREMIUM TIMES. The records have not been
publicly disclosed until now.
Mr Kyari died on Friday night in Lagos, becoming the most senior
Nigerian government official and public figure to fall victim to
coronavirus. The presidency announced his death shortly after
midnight on Saturday.
His body was moved to Abuja on Saturday morning and subsequently
interred at the military cemetery in the Gudu neighbourhood of the
capital.
Although he had served as the chief of staff since 2015, and
was believed to be the president’s most powerful aide, little was known
about his age and date of birth.
That led many media outlets to estimate his age, putting it at between
60s and 70s, and even 80s. While PREMIUM TIMES indicated in its
first reporting of his death that Mr Kyari’s age was unknown, Reuters
said he was in his 70s.
Some local broadcast stations like the AIT said Mr Kyari was born in
1938, an estimate that echoed the Wikipedia’s entry that said he was
81.
The social media was also locked in fierce arguments about Mr Kyari’s
age.
But information obtained by PREMIUM TIMES from multiple records
showed that Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, a Tuesday.

SHOCKINGLY, THIS MAN SPENT THE WHOLE OF HIS LIFE ENJOYING ANOTHER MAN'S Country, LEAVING NIGERIA'S PROBLEM BEHIND.

He had his early and secondary education in Nigeria and obtained at
least two degrees in England. First, he obtained a Bachelor’s degree at
the University of Warwick in early 1980s before proceeding to the
University of Cambridge for his Master’s degree in law. He was called
to the Nigerian bar in the mid-1980s.

Indeed, throughout his five-year streak as Mr Buhari’s chief of staff, Mr Kyari did not
receive birthday wishes that inundate administrative officials and politicians of his status.
Also, the press statements announcing his appointment in 2015 and his reappointment in
2019 did not also indicate his date of birth or age.

Hmm

He should be within that range, since Femi Fani-Kayode called him his friend.
He wouldn’t have called him his friend if Kyari was born in 1938

That is immaterial for now. May GOD forgive him of his trespasses and guide us on how to move the country forward(Amin). Ina lilahi wanina ilehi rajihun

For some reason Buhari felt the need to address his age controversy in his condolence letter claiming he's 67 years.
Clearly when there's this much controversy about a person's age, there has been some augmenting.

Lol, you funny ooo
God should forgive him as his dead abi

The Abba Kyari that was born in 1938 was Obasanjo's colleague during the civil war and was even a Military Governor of North Eastern State till 1975.




Among the Kanuris, the name ABBA means father, usually given to a child that was named after his father/grandfather.
It's similar to calling a child BABAtunde or BABAjide in Yorubaland.

Kyari is the name of their town. Many Northerners born before 1960 adopted the names of their towns as surnames e.g Shagari, Yar'Adua (a place in Katsina town) etc.
So Abba Kyari simply means Abba from the town of Kyari.

There are many Abbas from Kyari that are not related.
