Alleged former bodyguards accuse Pres. Buhari of unjustly dumping them after assuming office

Zuberu Idris, the former Chief Security Officer to Pres. Buhari for 12 years and other bodyguards, who claimed that they lives on the line for him, have accused him of abandoning them immediately after he became president. In a press conference monitored by AIT, the aggrieved guards poured out their minds.

Usman Justice who was Former Security/Store officer to Buhari said said: “We were betrayed by our various leaders. After the change mantra, they brought their children from various places where they are scoring abroad to be given an appointment. Meanwhile those that made the sacrifice are left to wallow away in the wilderness.”

Ola Balogun, who also feel betrayed by the gross injustice, said “80% of those that are serving with Buhari today are those that I knew very well were against him, who wanted to lay so many allegations against Buhari.”

On his part, Kazim Abdullahi said “Some of us that were attached to him, immediately were withdrawn and given advanced training for bodyguards. For God sake, what are we supposed to do with this training if we are the type that will cause trouble for Nigeria?”
