Ogba: El-Rufai should face DSS over seized passport

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State, Chidi Ogba, has urged former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai to report to the Department of State Services (DSS) over the seizure of his international passport. Ogba said there is nothing wrong with making himself available for questioning if he is confident he has done nothing wrong. Security agents recently intercepted El-Rufai at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja after his return from Cairo, Egypt, and confiscated his passport. His lawyer condemned the incident as an attempted arrest without a warrant and described the seizure of the passport as unconstitutional and an abuse of power. Ogba, however, argued that instead of relying only on public sympathy, El-Rufai should formally present himself to the DSS or any relevant security agency to clear up any issues. He maintained that submitting […]

IGP declares banks national security asset orders cyber fraud clampdown

Inspector General of Police Kayode Egbetokun has declared Nigeria’s banking sector a strategic national security asset and ordered an intelligence led crackdown on cybercriminals, insider collaborators and cross border financial crime syndicates targeting banks.​ Speaking at a meeting with the Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria and bank chief executives in Lagos, he said the police are shifting from reactive responses to proactive disruption of organised crime against financial institutions. He stressed that the strength of banking security now directly affects public confidence, investor perception and Nigeria’s international economic credibility.​ In a major policy change, Egbetokun announced that regular police officers will no longer be deployed for routine cash in transit escorts or non essential VIP protection for private sector clients. He explained that the traditional model of using conventional police units to guard banking operations is being reviewed in […]

Judge steps down from EFCC cases against Malami

Justice Obiora Egwuatu has withdrawn from two cases filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against former Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami. He said he was recusing himself for personal reasons and in the interest of justice.​ Egwuatu had only recently received the matters after they were reassigned to him by the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho. He announced his withdrawal shortly after a civil forfeiture suit on 57 properties allegedly linked to Malami was called.​ The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the cases were previously before Justice Emeka Nwite, who handled them as a vacation judge during the Christmas break. The files are expected to be sent back to the Chief Judge for reassignment to another judge.​

Cubana Chief Priest vows to work against Obi in 2027

Socialite Cubana Chief Priest has said he will work against Peter Obi in the 2027 presidential election. He made his position clear during an exchange with followers on Instagram.​ A fan had asked him directly if he would be working against Obi in the next election. In response, Cubana Chief Priest answered yes and said it was not a crime, noting that he had actually worked for Obi in the last election even while serving as a special adviser to an APC governor.​ His remark sparked mixed reactions, including from a follower who referred to his past issues with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. Cubana Chief Priest brushed this off, saying that in Nigeria one has not really made it if they have never been invited by the EFCC.​ The conversation later touched on Biafra and support from the […]

NNPP distances itself from Kwankwaso over judges’ visit claim

The New Nigeria People’s Party has distanced itself from former Kano State governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso over his claim that he took Governor Abba Yusuf to meet some Supreme Court judges in 2019.​ In a statement by its National Secretary, Oginni Olaposi Sunday, the party said Kwankwaso was not a member of the NNPP at the time the alleged visit took place. It described reports linking the party to the allegation as misleading and asked the Nigerian Bar Association to remove NNPP’s name from any related petition to the Inspector General of Police.​ The party explained that Kwankwaso only joined the NNPP a few months before the 2023 general elections, alongside Buba Galadima, Prof Rufai Alkali, Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi, Prof Hanga and Abba Yusuf.​ NNPP also rejected claims that Kwankwaso is a founding member. It stressed that the party was […]

BREAKING: Supreme Court dismisses Sule Lamido’s son Aminu’s appeal on undeclared $40,000 cash

The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal filed by Aminu Sule Lamido, son of former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido, challenging his conviction for failing to declare $40,000 at the airport and for making a false declaration of foreign currency in a case brought by the EFCC. In a unanimous judgment delivered on Friday by a five‑member panel, the apex court resolved all three issues raised in the appeal against Aminu and held that the case lacked merit.​ In the lead judgment written by Justice Adamu Jauro and read by Justice Abubakar Umar, the court affirmed the earlier decision of the Court of Appeal, Kaduna, which had upheld the verdict of the Federal High Court in Kano. The trial court had, in its July 12, 2015 judgment, convicted Aminu and ordered the forfeiture of 25 per cent of the undeclared […]

Ben Akinbami uses music to tackle crime and promote accountability

Nigerian singer Akinbami Ebenezer, popularly known as Ben Akinbami, is using his music to discourage crime and support the work of law enforcement agencies. In an industry often criticised for glorifying fraud, drug abuse and sex, he is choosing themes that warn against vices instead of celebrating them.​ Speaking after a performance at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission Officers Night Out, Akinbami said music is a powerful tool that can shape behaviour. He noted that if songs can influence people into drugs and other crimes, they can also inspire younger generations to live responsibly.​ His latest single, Hand Go Touch You, targets youths and corrupt politicians who are desperate for quick wealth. The track warns about the long term consequences of criminal lifestyles and urges respect for the rule of law.​ Akinbami, who started singing at age eight, has […]

Court remands ex-AGF Malami, son, co-defendant in Kuje prison over multibillion-naira fraud

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the remand of former Attorney-General of the Federation Abubakar Malami (SAN), his son Abdulaziz Malami and a co-defendant, Asabe Bashir, in custody over an alleged multibillion-naira money laundering case. Justice Emeka Nwite directed that Malami and his son be held at Kuje Correctional Centre while Bashir is to be kept at Suleja Correctional Centre, pending the hearing of their bail applications.​ The defendants were earlier arraigned by the EFCC on a 16-count charge bordering on alleged money laundering, unlawful acquisition of assets and conspiracy, to which they all pleaded not guilty. The judge declined an oral request for bail, ruling that it would be unfair to grant bail before the prosecution files a formal response to the written bail application already before the court.​ Justice Nwite said granting bail at this stage […]

Ex-AGF Malami, son arraigned on N8.7bn money laundering charges, plead not guilty

Former Attorney-General of the Federation Abubakar Malami (SAN) and his son have been arraigned by the EFCC on 16 counts of alleged money laundering running into about N8.7bn, with both pleading not guilty before the Federal High Court in Abuja. The charges allege they used companies like Metropolitan Auto Tech Ltd, Rayhaan Hotels Ltd and Meethaq Hotels Ltd to conceal the illicit origin of funds and acquire properties across Abuja, Kano and Kebbi between 2015 and 2025.​ Prosecutors say over N1.01bn was allegedly hidden in a Sterling Bank account between July 2022 and June 2025, with another N600m used as collateral for a N500m bank loan to Rayhaan Hotels in 2021. Further counts accuse them of disguising N500m used to buy a Maitama luxury duplex and controlling over N1.04bn and N1.36bn through Meethaq Hotels’ Union Bank account, allegedly knowing the […]
