Former Director General of the Department of State Security, DSS, Lawan
\nDaura, is the unseen hand behind the travails of Vice President Yemi
\nOsinbajo, Pointblanknews.com investigation has revealed.<\/p>\n
Daura who was appointed as DG DSS in 2015 after Buhari sacked Ita
\nEkpeyong was unceremoniously sacked in 2018 by Osinabjo while Buhari was
\naway in London for his medical leave.<\/p>\n
Sources told Pointblanknews.com that Daura is considered a key member of
\nthe Buhari cabal and Osinbajo\u2019s sacking of him considered a slap on the
\nBuhari\u2019s political family.<\/p>\n
Pointblanknews.com gathered that Daura, working with the President\u2019s
\nChief of Staff, Abba Kyari, have perfected plans to frustrate the Vice
\npresident, have him resign in frustration or have the National Assembly
\ninitiate his impeachment.<\/p>\n
According to the sources, the cabal have well-oiled plans to get back at
\nthe Vice President whom they feel undermined the political family of the
\npresident.<\/p>\n
The recent sacking of about 35 aides of the Vice president, the removal
\nof key agencies under the office of the Vice president were all part of
\nthe plans hatched and executed by Daura who is said to be operating from
\nthe Presidency, a Presidency source told Pointblanknews.com<\/p>\n
\u201cDaura has been very active since Buhari won his second term. He has
\nbeen operating from the Villa most times and has the complete backing of
\nthe Chief of Staff. Both are the ones plotting Osinbajo\u2019s downfall,\u201d a
\nsource at the Presidency familiar with issues told Pointblanknews.com.<\/p>\n
According to the source, the sacking of Daura and some of the decision\u2019s
\nVP Osinbajo took while Buhari was away, distorted the political
\narrangements and calculations of the cabal and they have vowed to take a
\npound of flesh.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are not forgiven the VP. They are very angry and determined to get
\nback at him. They feel the VP is an outsider who does not understand the
\nambitions and politics of those who have been with Buhari since 2003.<\/p>\n
The source told Pointblanknews.com that while Daura has been tipped for
\nthe position of the National Security Adviser, NSA, he is spearheading
\nthe plot to get Osinbajo out of the villa.<\/p>\n
The spokesman for the Pan-Yoruba group, Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin, had
\nsuggested that President Muhammadu Buhari stopped informing the national
\nassembly about his being out of the country so as not to make Vice
\nPresident Yemi Osinbajo the acting president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
