Contrary to a report that went viral on Sunday that an adopted son of General Muhammadu Buhari was arrested by the EFCC over a N20m scandal, the ex general’s camp has debunked the story, saying Buhari has no adopted son.

Earlier on Sunday, the EFCC said it arrested a man who claimed to be Gen. Buhari’s son over alleged N20m fraud.

However, Buhari distanced himself from the suspect, maintaining that he is not his son.


A statement issued by the Buhari Vanguard Sunday night on behalf of the General reads, “Disclaimer: Adopted Son of General Buhari Arrested For N20m Scam.

“Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd) wishes to state categorically that he does not have any adopted son called ‘Muhammadu Buhari’ and had no need to adopt a son at any time having been blessed with choice children, both male and female.

“Muhammadu Buhari and his family do not know the said ‘Muhammed Buhari’ who is alleged to be involved in a N20m scam and is being held by EFCC as reported by Saharareporters.

“It is regrettable to note that after several unsuccessful attempts to smear the hard earned respect, popularity, dignity, and enviable image of Muhammadu Buhari, mischief makers have resorted to a laughable tactic of linking Muhammadu Buhari to a crime just because someone who has been alleged to have committed a crime somewhere bears the name ‘Buhari’.

“Muhammadu Buhari is blessed with very descent and disciplined children who obviously took after their father. His children have no single record of stealing and inordinate behavior anywhere in the world. They do not seek attention, but have proven the stuff their father is made of any time their character is put to test.


“However, this is understandable, since the entire attempts by mischief makers to discredit Muhammadu Buhari as an individual have failed. We frown at this poorly articulated gimmick to indirectly link Muhammadu Buhari and his family to a crime allegedly committed by someone unknown to him and his family just for the fact that the said suspect bears the name “Muhammed Buhari’.

“We urge Nigerians to ignore the said report as Muhammadu Buhari and his family will continue to set the pace for others to follow in good character and conduct”.
