Reconnaissance around the Villa Despite insisting that gaining access to the Villa was impossible, Mr Ibrahim admitted in his written extrajudicial statement that he escorted two serving major-generals around parts of the Presidential Villa at Mr Ma’aji’s request.
Mr Ibrahim further alleged that on 9 April, 2025, he requested additional money from Mr Ma’aji, claiming it was meant for “gate guys” – fellow officers who would supposedly facilitate access into the Villa.
