Turai Sneaks Into Nigeria, Removes Vital Documents From Aso Rock by edwin101: 6:04pm On Jan 12, 2010
Wife of the sickly Nigerian President, Hajia Turai Yar’Adua had penultimate week sneaked into the country at the wee hours of the night, headed straight to the Presidential Villa and allegedly took away some vital documents, highly placed sources told pointblanknews.com.

Sources hinted that Hajia Yar’Adua sensing that her years as first lady was coming to an end owing to the chronic illness of President Yar’Adua, is desperate to clear everything capable of indicting the Yar’Adua family of corruption.

Saharareporters.com had earlier reported that the Turai Yar’adua had ordered “the removal of a cache of gold and diamond kept in the inner recesses of the presidential villa. The precious metals, described by our sources as “large in quantity,” are tied to a business co-owned by Turai and her daughter, Nafisat Yuguda, but run on their behalf by a Lebanese businessman Joseph Zeitoun and his Nigerian wife, Zainab Zeitoun.

Pointblanknews.com had also reported in December 8, 2009 that Mrs. Yar’Adua was set to return to the country after spending sleepless nights by her husband’s side in a Saudi Hospital.

However, it was gathered that not even Vice President Goodluck Jonathan was aware of the nocturnal visit of the first lady which lasted for few hours until some top security officials briefed him.

The first lady who had planned her return trip since December 9, 2009, had to reschedule when it was made public in the press. She was said to have departed Saudi Arabia few days later with the Presidential Jet. She spent not more than three hours in the Presidential Villa and was seen carrying some items suspected to be files according to a security source who hinted Pointblanknews.com.

The source informed Pointblanknews.com that only the Minister for Agriculture, Abba Ruma who made arrangement for her pick up from the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, and few other close associates knew about her visit.

Sources hinted that the Yar’Adua’s have some vital documents in the Presidential villa that may potentially be used against them as they feared the President may not make it back to the seat of power.

The Nigeria’s first lady is considered as one of the most corrupt in history with allegations that she receives kick-backs from contracts awarded by the Federal Government to her anointed companies, shady deals at the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, the Agriculture Ministry, the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Ministry amongst others

If this is true, that is total nonsense, cos national issue aint family issue and even the wife is not supposed to be in possession of them
