BEYOND THE VIRAL DRAMA: WHY THE ICPC MUST BE DEFENDED, NOT VILIFIED, OVER THE EL-RUFAI VISITING INCIDENT By Baba Magaji, Kaduna In the age of instant virality, a 30-second video clip can undo months of institutional integrity. We witnessed this recently when a video circulated showing Hajiya Aisha El-Rufai, wife of former Kaduna State Governor Malam Nasir El-Rufai, lamenting that she was denied access to bring food to her husband while in the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC). On the surface, the video tugs at the heartstrings a worried spouse blocked from feeding her husband. However, a dispassionate examination of the facts, the law, and established protocol reveals a different story: one of a privileged individual attempting to bypass standard operating procedures to create a public spectacle. First and foremost, it is critical to state categorically that the ICPC has not denied Mallam Nasir El-Rufai any fundamental human right...

Smear Campaign: Who Is Afraid of Dr Mustapha Abdullahi’s Rising Political Profile?

Smear Campaign: Who Is Afraid of Dr Mustapha Abdullahi’s Rising Political Profile? The recent media reports alleging the arrest of the Director-General of the Energy Commission of Nigeria, Dr Mustapha Abdullahi, by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over an alleged N500 billion fraud have exposed what appears to be a calculated smear campaign aimed at tarnishing the image of a rising public figure known for his loyalty to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his growing grassroots influence among Nigerian youths. Contrary to sensational reports circulating across some media platforms, Dr Abdullahi was neither arrested nor detained by the EFCC. Multiple reports confirmed that he merely honoured an invitation by the anti-graft agency in line with due process and respect for constituted authority.  A statement issued by his media team clarified that the ECN boss voluntarily responded to the EFCC’s invitation and was not arrested as falsely portrayed in several publica...

The Choice for Kaduna Central – Why Senator Shehu Sani is the Path Forward​Speaker: Prof. Kailani Muhammad, DG  Confederation of APC Support Groups​Good afternoon, gentlemen of the press, and more importantly, my fellow brothers and sisters across the length and breadth of Kaduna Central.​We are gathered here today at a critical crossroads in our political journey. We are not here simply to discuss the mechanics of an election or the technicalities of party loyalty. We are here to talk about the soul of our district. We are here because the people of Birnin Gwari, Giwa, Igabi, Chikun, Kajuru, and our metropolitan heart in Kaduna North and South are asking for something more than a representative. They are asking for a voice that doesn’t just whisper in the hallowed chambers of Abuja, but one that roars for the common man right here at home.​ As the Director General of the Confederation of APC Support Groups, my responsibility is to look beyond the surface. My duty is to...

Tackling the Misguided Claims Against Senator Yari of Zamfara APC

Tackling the Misguided Claims Against Senator Yari of Zamfara APC  *By Faruk, Sa'ad Muhammad* *Talata Mafara* It is not in our character, Yari political family, to reply posts and comments  that can easily be translated to be nonsensical in order not to amplify unnecessary political tension in the state as even the fire brand in the likes of Al'mansoor Gusau and Abubakar S. Limanci is deliberately moderated. Unfortunately, some of our leaders sponsor army of writers to raise issues that can easily be interpreted to have been initiated by them. In recent political discussions surrounding Zamfara State, some stooges of a certain politician from the state have attempted to portray Senator Abdul’aziz Yari Abubakar as a political burden to Zamfara and the ruling APC. Such assertions are not only exaggerated but also fail to acknowledge the political realities and contributions that have shaped Zamfara politics over the years. Marafan Sokoto remains one of the most influ...
