President Muhammadu Buhari was very unpleased with his security aides over his son, Yusuf’s accident with a power bike.
Yusuf
was drag racing with a friend on Tuesday night around 8 pm when he
crashed his power bike, sustaining head injuries and breaking a limb in
the process.
According to ThisDay: “The president was at the
hospital on Wednesday night. He was very devastated when he saw his son,
Yusuf, in a very critical situation. He was shaking his head, while
looking at his son and thereafter angrily reprimanded his security
officials for allowing Yusuf to leave home at that time of the day for
power-bike racing.
From the way the president spoke, it appears
the security aides are in trouble. He spoke angrily. The Minister of
Interior, Lt-Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd); his FCT ministry
counterpart, Alhaji Mohammed Bello; and the Senate President’s wife,
Mrs. Toyin Saraki; stayed throughout the night of Tuesday till Wednesday
at the hospital with Hajia Aisha Buhari.
While the doctors were
working to stabilise him, Dambazau kept appealing to the doctors to do
everything possible to stabilise Yusuf, saying the president would find
it very difficult to bear the pain if anything happens to his son.”
