Some family sources have allegedly confirmed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s nephew, Mamman Daura travelled to the UK on Wednesday, August 19.
While there are reports of the former journalist and industrialist being flown out on medical emergency after testing positive for Coronavirus, some family sources revealed that he travelled to the UK in good health.
A family source told TheCable “It is true he travelled to the UK on Wednesday. Every other thing is imagined, just to give the story some sensation. He is in good health.”
Another family source said “It is impossible that a man, who is over 80, would have breathing problems on Friday and the family would wait for five days before flying him abroad in an emergency. A man having breathing problems on Friday would not attend a public funeral on Tuesday. The reports said he was flown out in a private jet, although people with medical emergencies are usually flown in air ambulances. More so, what country in the world is receiving foreign COVID-19 patients at this time? You are required to be COVID negative before you can fly. Every country is paying priority to its own citizens because of the overwhelming nature of the pandemic. Mallam did not travel to the UK to treat COVID-19 or because of any medical emergency. He is in good health. He went for his regular check-up and there is nothing strange about that.”
