Tight security in Daura as Buhari’s daughter weds

The ancient city of Daura in Katsina state, witnessed tight security on Friday as President Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter, Fatima, got married to Malam Yau Gimba Kumo.

The wedding took place at the president’s residence on Mai’adua road, Duura at about 2.40 p.m.

The groom, who was a former Managing Director of Mortgage Bank, paid N100,000 as dowry to the bride.

The marriage was contracted in accordance with Islamic injunctions and was attended by top Federal and States’ Government functionaries.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that there was a heavy deployment of security personnel in and around the residence of the president on Mai’adua road in Daura town.

Security personnel were also deployed in strategic locations to protect lives and property during the wedding.

Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) was stationed at the junction linking to the residence of the president.

The venue of the wedding, Low-Cost Jumu’at Mosque, also witnessed a heavy presence of joint security personnel, who surrounded it.

However, worshipers, who trooped to Mosque, had unhindered access to observe their religious obligation.

While that was going on, security personnel were seen patrolling the town to guard against any eventuality.
