Lawal Daura, Director-General of the Directorate of State Security (DSS), Mamman Daura, the influential nephew of President Muhammadu Buhari, and Abba Kyari, Chief of Staff to President Buhari, have secretly begun working on a plan to have Ibrahim Magu, acting Chairman, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), redeployed back to the Nigeria Police Force.
According to an authoritative report by SaharaReporters, the moves being made by the three men, top Presidency sources said, are independent of President Buhari, who is unwilling to replace Magu.
The President is said to be unconvinced by the negative DSS report on Magu’s integrity. However, the President’s nephew the DSS boss and Kyari are said to be exploiting President Buhari’s brittle health to replace Magu, who has obdurately resisted their attempts to teleguide him.
“They are capitalizing on Buhari’s failing health to execute their project of getting Magu out because he has refused to be considering their advisory role in carrying out his job.
“The DSS boss is behind all the reports against Magu. Behind him are Maman Daura and Abba Kyari. They have failed to convince President Buhari that Mr. Magu has integrity issues,” said a top Presidency source.
The failure to achieve their aim has made them approach the Inspector-General of Police, Lawal K. Idris to recall Magu from the EFCC back to the Nigerian Police Force.
Authoritative sources said the DSS is planning to author more damaging reports on Magu’s reputation with a view to making his continued stay at EFCC untenable. “In the course of the drama, they will have their way because the trio wields a lot of influence,” said a source.
