Mamman Daura, the nephew of former President Muhammadu Buhari, is said to have become ill after hearing of the arrest of the suspended Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, in Katsina State.
According to newsmen, sources close to Daura have revealed that he became ill after learning about Emefiele’s detention by the Department of State Services (DSS).
According to SaharaReporters, Daura’s sudden sickness could be related to how he shielded Emefiele from prosecution for numerous years due to alleged business activities including currency sales that Daura mostly controlled.

This platform recalls that Emefiele’s detention occurred on the same day that President Bola Tinubu declared his immediate suspension.
The DSS sought to arrest Emefiele in February, but the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Lucky Irabor, protected him by assigning soldiers to defend his home and office.
The secret police stated that it had escalated its investigations in order to capture and punish Emefiele on suspicions of terrorism financing and fraud until he was apprehended last Friday.
However, a source close to Buhari’s nephew disclosed that “Daura has taken ill after the Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefiele was arrested by Nigeria’s secret police, DSS last Friday. He is one of the cabals who protected the Central Bank Governor, shielding him from prosecution for several years because of business dealings involving sales of forex that is largely controlled by him.”
