Sultan Of Sokoto’s eldest
son, Amir Abubakar, has been involved in a terrible accident, reportedly after
getting high on codeine.
According to Sahara
Reporters, Amir was driving at a very high speed around 12noon within Sokoto
Airport Road, in an area called Bado when the crash occurred.
With him in the car when
the accident occured were Khalifa Maccido, son of Aliyu Macciddo, and another
girl.
Eyewitnesses at the scene
of the crash claimed Amir had been drunk while driving, and that a bottle of
Benelyn Codeine syrup was found in the car.
While Amir was being taken
to the hospital, officials of the Sultanate Council were reportedly seen
removing the Sultanate council plate number from the car so as not to expose
the Sultanate Council.
SaharaReporters say they
contacted Faruku Ladan Ddaji, Secretary of the Sultanate, but he said he
couldn’t confirm the story as he was out of town.
Amir was taken to the Usman
Danfodio Teaching Hospital, where he has been unconscious.
SaharaReporters adds that
Amir, believed to have been dismissed from a UK school due to his drunkenness,
was seen earlier on Sunday leaving a guest house with the girl and his friend
Khalifa.
Ami’s name means “leader”
and he was named after Sheik Usman Fodio. He is the eldest son of Usman Sa’ad
Abubakar, the Sultan of Sokoto.
