Impeached Adamawa state governor, Admiral Murtala
Nyako, has reportedly fled the country in a bid to avoid
being harassed by security agents, who have been looking
for him and for security concerns about his life.
A reliable source close to Nyako, who revealed this to
Vanguard, said the governor had left Nigeria shortly after
he was impeached to take a deserved rest after many
years of the saddle.

"It is true that Nyako had since left Nigeria to go and have
a deserved rest but the main reason he left was because he
was afraid for his life .
"Beyond the issue of trying to impeach the governor, he was
really worried about people who could harm him because
of their fear that he had so much information. So, I can tell
you that as we speak, Nyako is not in Nigeria ," the source
said.
Nyako was removed as governor of Adamawa by the state
House of Assembly after he was probed and found guilty of
financial misconduct. Few hours after his removal on
Tuesday, 15 July, 2014, there were reports that the
impeached governor might be charged to court for alleged
treason.
Security agents had reportedly stormed his Asokoro, Abuja
residence, few hours after he was sacked to effect his arrest
but he was nowhere to be found. Following his
disappearance, the Federal Government was allegedly
considering declaring Nyako wanted as a last resort to
compel him to come and face the charges that have been
prepared against him by both the office of the AGF and the
EFCC.
Reacting to Nyako's disappearance, the presidency said his
running away is a clear indication that the accusations
against him were correct.
