Can see this going sideways in a hurry.
Akiba, a close aide to Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga and his predecessor Shinzo Abe, will replace Shigeru Kitamura, a former National Police Agency official, as head of Japan's National Security Secretariat, the sources said.
Neither former current Pms have a history of good choices.

Really? He has absolutely, positively no contact with today's world, with reality. He's completely cut off.

Does he actually have any experience for the post that he is about to take? I do not see any! So why has he been chosen? Another friend of Abe/Suga who need a promotion, but zero experience in the subject? We can't expect any improvement then, or was that the idea?

Once again, just rotating friends. Akiba is a nut job.
