Mamman Daura, a nephew and close confidant of President Muhammadu Buhari, has been flown to the United Kingdom for urgent medical treatment.
Daura, 79, was said to have been flown in a private jet to the UK on Wednesday, August 19, 2020, after exhibiting respiratory difficulties with symptoms similar to COVID-19 since last Friday, according to Sahara Reporters.
The former journalist, who is an integral member of influential individuals around President Buhari, is said to have had a history of renal crisis and had regularly visited the West for medical attention.
Recall that earlier this month; Daura came under widespread criticisms after he said that zoning of the Presidency in Nigeria should be jettisoned for competence.
Speaking with the BBC Hausa, he said the zoning formula had failed Nigeria and should be abandoned.
It should be noted that, in April, this year, the late Chief of Staff to President Buhari, Abba Kyari, died from COVID-19 complications.
