The acting governor said:
“Few
of my aides and I were already at the domestic wing of the airport to
receive my boss but, unknowingly to me, the cabal was already waiting at
the international wing of the airport where the plane conveying my boss
was directed to land.”
“When I got to
know that the plane landed at the international wing, I rushed to the
place to receive him, but he was in a jeep which immediately drove him
to T.Y. Danjuma Lodge,”
Umar reportedly added
that the ailing governor is being held hostage by some elements who
were determined to keep him in office despite his obvious inability to

country in August 2013 after treatment abroad and since then it has been
frequently alleged that he is brain damaged and unable to perform his
leadership duties.
