Having options, I think we sometimes overlook how big of a blessing it is to have options in choosing what to eat, what to wear, what to drink, what shoe to put on based on the weather, what perfume to use, a preferred toothpaste or a preferred hospital. Alhamdulillah

There’s this lecture of Dr. Haifaa about centering Allah in your life. Not your marriage, not your children, not your career, but to live for Him. Aim to excel in all these simply to please Him. I think every once in a while it’s important to remind ourselves of our purpose.

This is the kind of thing I would do if my uncle was a former president, former governor and another uncle was a former vice president and my own dad is a senator.
Your father's name may open doors, but only your work will keep you inside. Stop hiding in someone else's shadow

You see things like this and realize our governors are all useless, they are deliberately and systematically keeping us underdeveloped and at their mercy. There is not a single reason why they should prioritize flyovers and airports over food security and agriculture. Mtssw
Today, I paid a working visit to the ongoing Lagos Central Food Security Systems and Logistics Hub at Ketu-Ereyun, Epe, Lagos.
This hub will be the largest of its kind in Sub-Saharan Africa, aimed at regulating food production, providing massive storage, ensuring food preservation, controlling food prices, and so much more.

Nuhu Ribadu: A Silent Force in Nigeria’s Security Architecture
By Bello Kabir, writing from Kaduna State
In the evolving landscape of Nigeria’s security challenges, it is not common to find silent achievers in the corridors of power. Yet, one name continues to resonate with quiet efficiency, strategic thinking, and unshaken integrity: Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, the current National Security Adviser (NSA) to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Ribadu’s appointment in 2023 came with both anticipation and skepticism. As the first NSA without a military background, many questioned how a man known for anti-corruption crusades and intelligence work would navigate the complex terrain of national security. But nearly two years into the role, his results speak louder than credentials.
A Legacy of Integrity and Service
Nuhu Ribadu is no stranger to national duty. As the pioneer Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), he redefined public expectations for anti-graft agencies. Under his leadership, the EFCC became a formidable force against corruption—prosecuting powerful individuals and recovering stolen funds with unprecedented boldness.
Bringing that same tenacity into the security space, Ribadu has approached insecurity not just with force, but with intelligence-led strategies. His background in law enforcement and his ability to coordinate with international partners have added new dimensions to how Nigeria tackles insurgency, terrorism financing, and cross-border threats.
Achievements So Far
1. Revamped Intelligence Coordination: For the first time in years, inter-agency cooperation under the NSA's office has significantly improved. Ribadu’s leadership has led to more unified and less fragmented security operations.
2. Targeted Action Against Banditry and Insurgency: His data-driven and intelligence-focused strategies have contributed to the arrest and neutralization of high-profile terror leaders, and the disruption of logistics networks in the North East and North West.
3. Reputation and Diplomacy: Ribadu has rebuilt trust between Nigeria and some of its international security partners. His credibility has helped attract support in intelligence sharing, equipment, and training.
4. Non-Militarized Strategy: As a civilian NSA, Ribadu has emphasized community engagement and soft-power approaches, proving that the solution to insecurity is not always brute force.
5. Stability Within Intelligence Agencies: Gone are the days of public rivalries between DSS, NIA, and other security units. Under Ribadu’s watch, there’s greater synergy and shared responsibility.
A Call for More
While Ribadu’s impact is notable, Nigeria is still far from its desired state of security. Rural banditry, kidnappings, and ethno-religious violence remain serious threats. We must encourage the NSA to deepen collaborations with state governments, strengthen local intelligence frameworks, and advocate for more youth-driven community security models.
Conclusion
Mallam Nuhu Ribadu may not wear military fatigues, but he wears something far more powerful—credibility, competence, and a deep-rooted love for Nigeria. In my view, he remains the most effective NSA we’ve had—precisely because he breaks the mold.
But the work isn’t done. Ribadu’s legacy as Nigeria’s first civilian NSA will be defined not just by what he inherited, but by what he will leave behind. The path is long, but with steady hands like his, we are not walking blind.

EFCC Makes Single Largest Asset Recovery till Date
Justice Jude Onwuegbuzie, on Monday, December 2, 2024 gave a ruling on a final forfeiture of an estate in Abuja measuring 150,500 square metres and containing 753 Units of duplexes and other apartments. This is the single largest asset recovery by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, since its inception in 2003. The Estate rests on Plot 109 Cadastral Zone C09, Lokogoma District, Abuja.
The forfeiture of the property to the federal government by a former top brass of the government was pursuant to EFCC’s mandate and policy directive of ensuring that the corrupt and fraudulent do not enjoy the proceeds of their unlawful activities. In this instance, the Commission relied on Section 17 of the Advance Fee Fraud And Other Fraud Related Offences Act No 14, 2006 and Section 44 (2) B of the Constitution of the 199 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to push its case.
Ruling on the Commission’s application for the final forfeiture of the property, Justice Onwuegbuzie held that the respondent have not shown cause as to why he should not lose the property, “which has been reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities, the property is hereby finally forfeited to the federal government.”
The road to the final forfeiture of the property was paved by an interim forfeiture order, secured before the same Judge on November 1, 2024. The government official which fraudulently built the estate is being investigated by the EFCC. The forfeiture of the asset is an important modality of depriving the suspect of the proceeds of the crime.
The justification for the forfeiture is derived from Part 2, Section 7 of the EFCC Establishment Act, which stipulates that the EFCC “has power to cause investigations to be conducted as to whether any person, corporate body or organization has committed any offence under this Act or other law relating to economic and financial crimes and cause investigations to be conducted into the properties of any person if it appears to the Commission that the person’s lifestyle and extent of the properties are not justified by his source of income.”
The Commission’s Executive Chairman, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, has repeatedly described asset recovery as pivotal in the fight against corruption, economic and financial crimes and a major disincentive against the corrupt and the fraudulent.
Addressing members of the House of Representatives Committee on Anti-corruption recently, he said, “If you understand the intricacies involved in financial crimes investigation and prosecution you will discover that to recover one billion naira is war. So, I told my people that the moment we start investigation we must also start asset tracing because asset recovery is pivotal in the anti-corruption fight; and one of the potent instruments that you can deploy as an anti-corruption agency for an effective fight is asset tracing and recovery. If you allow the corrupt or those that you are investigating to have access to the proceeds of their crime, they will fight you with it. So one of the ways to weaken them is to deprive them of the proceeds of their crime. So, our modus operandi has changed simultaneously. The moment we begin investigation, we begin asset tracing. That was what helped us to make our recoveries.”

Sir Ahmadu Bello would spit on each and every single one of these clowns and curse them to damnation
In Kaduna, the Sir Ahmadu Bello Memorial Foundation (SABMF) is organizing a two-day government-citizen engagement forum which is currently holding at Arewa House. The theme is “Assessing Electoral Promises: Fostering Government-Citizen Engagement for National Unity.” The event is attended by the Federal Government delegation and several other dignitaries.
President Tinubu is represented by Kwara State Governor, Gov. Uba Sani of Kaduna, Gov. Inuwa Yahya of Gombe, and other governors from the northern region are all in attendance as well as the Ministers of Information, Defence, Budget and National Planning, other ministers, the NSA and heads of key government agencies from the North.
The SABMF, a non-political, non-profit organization founded in 2009, aims to preserve the legacy of Sir Ahmadu Bello, the former Premier of Northern Nigeria, known for his role in political development, education, and regional unity.

In just under 4 days since lodging the complaint, Governor Radda decisively took action by instructing the immediate deployment of extra buses to Umaru Musa Yar'Adua University. This prompt response clearly demonstrates his unwavering confidence in resolving the difficulties faced by the students. Thanks to the effective leadership of @dikko_radda, the system is now up and running smoothly once again.

There’s no reason why 100million in cash should be lying around in Kankia. Not with the constant attacks by bandits and kidnappings ravaging the surrounding communities. I expect whoever owns that money to be fully investigated by the security operatives
"This is Salihu Abdulhadi Kankia from Katsina State, member of Islamic Organization, JIBWIS, who picked a random bag containing over N100m Naira in Kankia LG of Katsina State and returned it to the owner without taking a single kobo.
He was conferred with honesty and trustworthy award and Hajj Trip by the National Chairman, Shaykh (Dr) Abdullahi Bala Lau, was awarded a car by Bauchi State Governor, and N2m by a member of the House of Reps.
This boy has made himself and his family a symbol of honesty, integrity, and trustworthiness. This is by far more than the gifts he has gotten or about to get.
...It’s on this note that I implore whoever can assist in getting this boy a fully paid scholarship to at least degree level to reach out to his family for arrangements.
I will send this request to anyone I know can help. Please let’s appreciate him but amplifying and tagging who we believe can be of help."
