President Muhammad Buhari didn’t know of the existence of son Yusuf’s power bikes, a new report has claimed.
According to the Daily Post, Yusuf acquired the motorcycles for him and his friend Bashir Gwandu back in June 2017, buying two at N57 million each from Germany.
The accident, which left Yusuf needing brain surgery, resulted as a collision between Yusuf and Gwandu.
The website adds: “Our source revealed that upon the purchase of the two power bikes, they were kept at Gwandu’s residence, located in Gwarinpa District, in the Bwari Local Government Area. “Yusuf, who has three operatives attached to him from the Department of State Service (DSS) reportedly struck a deal with his security details, who allowed him to always sneak out in the night for racing at Gwandu’s place.”
“The operatives, against their pattern of operation and procedure of duty perpetually rolled out their daily reports without that aspect of Yusuf’s movement, the compromise that got President Buhari seriously infuriated.”
The DSS operatives who were assigned to Yusuf have been sacked, according to the report.
