President
Muhammadu Buhari has ordered Nigeria’s security agents to arrest his
brother-in-law for allegedly extorting money from an unnamed businessman, a
close confidante of the Nigerian leader told SaharaReporters. He said the
suspect, named Musa Yola, was the immediate younger brother of Mr. Buhari’s
wife.
Our
source disclosed that the suspect, also addressed as “Alhaji Yola,” reportedly
received N300 million from a businessman after promising to provide his dupe
with political access to secure an oil block from the Buhari administration.
According to our source, Mr. Buhari personally ordered last Monday night that
Mr. Yola be produced before him in handcuffs in the company of the businessman
he duped.
After
telling the businessman that he was stupid to part with such significant cash
when he should know that he, Mr. Buhari, would not participate in fraud, the
president ordered agents of the State Security Services (SSS) attached to Aso
Rock Villa to thoroughly investigate the scam. He also ordered the SSS
operatives to ensure that the businessman recovered his money from his
brother-in-law.
An
SSS source told SaharaReporters, “Alhaji Yola has refunded the money to
the affected businessman.” He added: “Alhaji Yola has been released on bail.”
