One of Nigeria’s richest retired military generals,
Theophilus Danjuma, was flown out of Nigeria
last week in an air ambulance, according to
family sources.
SaharaReporters learnt that the retired military
officer, who has served in various capacities in
government and also in the oil industry, fell
seriously ill and had to be flown out on an air
ambulance.
One of the family sources said no member of the
family was aware of the retired general’s final
destination for treatment, but added there were
strong indications that he was flown to Germany.
SaharaReporters could not ascertain the health
status of the general as his wife, Daisy Danjuma,
could not be reached to confirm General
Danjuma’s condition.
However, a close friend of Mrs. Danjuma said
General Danjuma only had a slight Malaria for
which he is receiving treatment in the UAE. The
source claimed Danjuma is expected back in
Nigeria on Tuesday.
