President-Elect Buhari Walks Out
Customs, NSCDC Boss Lobbying
To Retain Their Positions Out Of
His Daura Home
by Musa Abdullahi
The president elect has issued a red card to
serving top government officials who in recent
times besieged his residence in Daura, Katsina
to lobby for retention of their positions.
Buhari, was livid last week when the current
Comptroller-General of Customs, Abdullahi
Dikko Inde, visited his residence in Daura to
pay homage.
Reports according to sources say the customs
boss who coincidentally hails from, Musawa
Local Government Area, Katsina state
immediately after informing the President-Elect
of his mission was advised to go back to his
duty post.
Dikko, shocked by Buhari’s response tried
unsuccessfully to inform the retired General of
the situation at all Nigeria’s borders, seaport
and the airports, but the President-elect
upbraided the 55 year-old that the ideal
procedure is to wait until he has been sworn in
as president, describing the visit as unhealthy,
unethical and disloyalty to a government he is
still serving.
He thereafter asked the customs boss to leave
his residence, rejecting also his gift items.
The Comptroller general and his team hurriedly
left the residence, parking the valuables and
gifts items along.
The visit of the current Commandant-General of
the NSCDC, Ade Abolurin, on Sunday was more
comical, he arrived Daura, the residence of the
President-Elect with top officers of the corps,
photographers and some members of the
press.
According to a member of the Buhari Campaign
from Katsina, “The President-Elect was having
his normal quiet time when the delegation
arrived”. The corps officers led by its
commandant were left outside in the scorching
sun for over an hour, before the commandant
and two corps officers were allowed entry into
the President-elect’s visitors room
Abolurin, still recuperating from a fire burn
incident got the shock of his life when an aide of
Buhari, said that the retired General wants him
out of his residence and will not be seeing him.
Dumbfounded the corps officers left in a haste
to the surprise of other delegation members
outside, who were waiting and hoping to see
the president-elect and take photographs with
him.
Private business tycoons are not left out of the
visits, Forte Oil CEO, Femi Otedola, and Oando
boss Adewale Tinubu also visited Buhari last
week.
The national leader of the APC, Ahmed Bola
Tinubu, shortly before the governorship
elections brought the Chagoury brothers to
meet with the president-elect in a closed door
meeting.
Nigeria’s Former Head of State’s Home,
General Abdulsalami Abubakar is now the
location for most Chieftains of the Peoples
Democratic Party members who are lobbying
not to go to jail.
Nigeria’s Petroleum Minister had also visited
Abdulsalami seeking Amnesty by the new
regime led by Muhammadu Buhari.
If elected Nigeria’s president in 2015, former
military leader, Muhammadu Buhari, will not
immediately go after past leaders, politicians
and officials, who stole the country dry and
committed other offences, his party, the All
Progressives Congress, APC, had said.
Mr. Buhari will be more focused on solving
Nigeria’s many problems left behind by the
former leaders, APC chairman, John Oyegun,
said.
“The first moments of a Buhari Presidency, the
outlook is on the future,” said Mr. Oyegun. “The
message will be clear, whatever you engage in
before that is detrimental to the people of this
country, please stop it, change has come.”
Mr. Buhari’s anti-corruption record as military
leader is seen as his strongest creden

Hello sir, I got a notification that you emailed me. I often get notifications like these.

However no email in my email account. My email is not really connected to Nairaland at all so I don't know where all of that is coming from.

Just so that you know that I'm not ignoring you, I haven't received any email from you.
