Meanwhile, NAIJ.com previously reported that a second republic lawmaker, Junaid Mohammed, has claimed that the new Secretary General of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, is a first cousin of the former SGF, Babachir Lawal.
Mohammed, while speaking to Punch after the announcement of the new SGF, said that there is no need for any celebration as the new SGF is closely related to the old SGF.
He accused the Buhari led administration of nepotism and cronyism.
