There is uncertainty over the fate of Gordon
Obua, the Chief Security Officer to former
President Goodluck Jonathan, who is being
detained by the Department of State Service.
It was gathered on Monday that the health of
Obua, who had been in custody since last
Thursday at the DSS headquarters, Abuja, might
have deteriorated.
Our correspondent gathered that the DSS
operative had been battling with diabetics and
hypertension, which might have worsened
following his detention and inability to get proper
medical care.
Obua’s condition could not be immediately
ascertained, but security sources stated that the
health of the former CSO had “taken a nosedive.”
The former CSO was taken into custody
following investigations into how security vote at
the Presidential Villa under his watch was spent.
It was gathered that Obua as CSO commanded a
huge amount of money as security vote, which
could not be accounted for.
The DSS has yet to publicly admit that the
security operative is in detention or declare the
reason for his arrest, fueling speculation that
Obua was detained as part of a plot to
embarrass the Jonathan administration.
The DSS could not be reached for comment, as
it has yet to announce a new spokesperson, but
Obua’s lawyer, Onochie Onwuegbuna, had earlier
issued a statement in which he accused the DSS
of denying his client his medications.
He also complained about the conditions under
which he was being detained and demanded
Obua’s unconditional release.
“Our client is hypertensive and diabetic to the
knowledge of his employers, and as a result, he
has been on daily medications to manage these
very severe ailments and since his detention, he
has completely been denied access to these
medications.
“Our client has also been denied access to
members of his family, his doctor and his
lawyers, and even more worrisome is the
information obtained by his family that he has
not eaten or drank water since he was detained,”
the statement read.
Onwuegbuna alleged that his client was being
“witch-hunted as part of a plan against marked
individuals, who served and held offices in the
Jonathan administration, in other to implicate
them by all means for phantom offences.”
Obua’s family also accused the Director-General,
DSS, Lawal Daura, of plotting to watch Obua die
in detention.
The family stated that no allegation had been
brought against Obua so far, noting that his
whereabouts had been unknown since last week
Thursday.

If this thread was against Buhari now, many of u will b defending. Smh.

I still need to know how a CSO is hypertensive. Is this possible? In developed countries, people that are hypertensive are not even allowed to work in high rise buildings, how much more security agencies.

I hope he still has a pulse. Now they have another opportunity to do the right thing the right way before it gets any worse.

Many Nigerian Adults above 40 are hypertensive and when you factor in garri aka EBA consumption and weight gain - its a recipe for a tragedy.
