His name constantly features as a man that has always had the ear of
the President. A top figure now openly alleged to be the leader of shadowy
“Kaduna Mafia,’’ Alhaji Daura, a veteran journalist and a successful
industrialist , is like the president, from Katsina State, but he is more than
that, an uncle who is some years younger.
He is not just an industrialist but a top journalist and editor of the now defunct New Nigerian newspaper where he served as the holding company’s managing director, when the newspaper used to determine the direction of events and state policies in the country.
