Image
Former Senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has defended the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, dismissing allegations made against him by former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, as diversionary and unfounded. Sani, in a statement via his X handle @shehusani on Sunday, said the former governor should concentrate on addressing allegations reportedly raised against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission rather than making what he described as “phantom claims” against the National Security Adviser. “The ex-governor of Kaduna State should focus on the allegations before him and clear his name instead of diverting attention with his purported and phantom claims against the NSA,” Sani said. He questioned the timing of the allegations, asking why such sensitive information was not made public earlier. “Why the delay in disclosing such sensitive information to the public until when he was invited? His antics and deceptions should be ignored,” he ...

“Poisonous Gas” Panic or Political Plot? Nigerians Demand Accountability from Nasir El-Rufai as Nuhu Ribadu Defends National Security

Image
Amid swirling claims of a poisonous gas allegedly imported to trigger fear and panic, concerned Nigerians have raised an urgent call: while Nuhu Ribadu remains steadfast in safeguarding lives and institutions, Nasir El-Rufai must be held accountable for spreading narratives capable of destabilizing national security. Nigerians Push Back Against Reckless Allegations A coalition of civic-minded Nigerians has strongly condemned what they described as reckless and politically motivated statements by former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai.

From Turbulence to Traction: Why Governor AKY’s APC Shift Could Reset Kano’s Politics

Image
For decades, Kano politics has been a theatre of perpetual motion—loud, crowded and endlessly combative. Elections came and went, governments changed, yet the underlying rhythm remained the same: tension over stability, politics over policy and survival over strategy.  Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf’s (AKY) alignment with the All Progressives Congress (APC) may well mark the first decisive break from that cycle. This is not merely a political realignment; it is an appointment with history. Kano’s greatest paradox has always been its strength. As Nigeria’s commercial nerve centre of the North, blessed with population, enterprise, culture and talent, the state should have been miles ahead. Instead, political fragmentation has repeatedly turned energy into friction. Governments spent too much time fighting for legitimacy and too little time governing for growth. AKY’s move into the APC, aligning Kano with the party at the centre, directly confronts this structural weakness. Sta...
