By Idris Aminu

Among the very few names that resonate very loudly and command profound respect in the politics of the ancient Caliphate is Rep. Ahmad Abdullahi Kalambaina, the distinguished Honourable Member representing Kware/Wamakko Federal Constituency with unwavering dedication and exceptional prowess.

Known for his unparalleled grassroots mobilisation and far-reaching positive impact, Hon. Kalambaina is highly favoured and widely celebrated for his high-scale performance that touches directly and profoundly on the well-being, empowerment, and sustainable economic development of his constituents in every corner of the constituency.

As the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Defence, Rep. Kalambaina has demonstrated rare, exemplary, and visionary parliamentary leadership, earning him the deepest respect, admiration, and unwavering loyalty of his peers, colleagues, and constituents alike.

A true champion of constituency development and grassroots empowerment, Rep. Kalambaina’s deliberate, intentional, and consistent commitment to his constituency is vividly evident in his tireless efforts to secure critical projects, vital resources, and transformative interventions for Kware/Wamakko, re-echoing a determined, passionate, and positive dedication to improving their lives on multiple fronts, and earning him the exemplary, well-deserved reputation of a responsive, effective, and people-centered leader.

The Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Defence, Rep. Kalambaina plays a leading, critical, and highly evident role in shaping Nigeria’s defence policies with strategic insight, showcasing his deep expertise, invaluable experience, and authoritative voice in defence matters during various committee deliberations, hearings, and national security discussions. His various people-oriented projects stand out as a positive beacon of light, hope, and a pacesetter for others to emulate with enthusiasm and determination.

Hon. Kalambaina has initiated numerous remarkable, impactful, and developmental projects in his constituency, boldly building four separate road projects in Wamakko and Kware to enhance connectivity and economic activities, and constructing over twenty solar-powered water boreholes across various communities to ensure reliable access to clean water and improve public health.

To decisively ease the menace of infrastructural deficits in public schools within his constituency and promote educational excellence, Hon. Kalambaina built several modern schools and reconstructed various public schools with state-of-the-art facilities, including a fully equipped laboratory science facility at Kalambaina Secondary School in Wamakko Local Government aimed at enhancing research, providing practical science education to the citizens, and complementing the State Government’s commendable efforts toward boosting the education sector in Sokoto State.

A diligent, articulate, and passionate parliamentarian, his various insightful inputs and laudable contributions both at plenaries and as the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Defence have played a notable, influential, and pivotal role in shaping Nigeria’s defence policies with clarity and foresight.

His doggedness, proactive representation, and unyielding commitment to developing his constituency, along with the renewed hope and tangible progress he has brought to his people, have earned him widespread praise, glowing accolades, and heartfelt endorsements from many, including Governor Ahmed Aliyu and Senator Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko.

An astute, dynamic, and transformational leader, Hon. Kalambaina’s outstanding leadership style is rapidly and positively transforming his constituency in profound ways, while his exceptional skill, strategic ability, and insightful congruence have secured numerous high-impact projects, timely interventions, and substantial resources for his constituency, vividly demonstrating his unmatched effectiveness as a representative

.As a dedicated member, Rep. Kalambaina always goes home to his constituency on a weekly basis without fail, ensuring that the pulse of his people's needs beats in sync with every decision he makes in Abuja. His doors are always open to everyone, from the humblest farmer in the remotest village to the bustling trader in the heart of Kware, inviting all to share their joys, burdens, and aspirations with unbridled freedom and genuine warmth.

This weekly ritual of homecoming is a profound testament to his deep-rooted humility, transforming him into a living bridge between the corridors of power and the everyday struggles of his constituents, fostering an unbreakable bond of trust and intimacy that few leaders dare to cultivate.

In almost every three months, Rep. Kalambaina conducts empowerment initiatives that have a direct bearing on the growth and self-reliance of his constituency. These quarterly programs are meticulously planned and generously funded, including skill acquisition workshops for youth, micro-credit schemes for women entrepreneurs, agricultural toolkits for farmers, and health outreach for vulnerable families, all tailored to ignite sustainable livelihoods and shatter the chains of poverty.

This is hardly done by any member from his state, let alone the nation; while others make sporadic promises, Hon. Kalambaina delivers consistent revolutions every ninety days, lifting thousands from subsistence to surplus and earning him widespread acclaim as a true pacesetter.

Little wonder then that as a powerful testament to his immense popularity, the unshakeable trust, and the absolute confidence of his constituents in his focus, intentionality, and delivery, he secured a very resounding and historic victory in the recent bye-election with a landslide 31,288 votes, convincingly defeating his closest opponent, Alhaji Aminu Bello Kware of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who managed a distant 7,205 votes.

A symbol of hope, progress, and an amplification of true, authentic representation, Rep. Ahmad’s leadership in the House of Representatives is a clear reflection of his deep dedication to public service, his unwavering commitment to the overall development of Sokoto State, and his passion for uplifting his people.

As Rep. Ahmad Abdullahi Kalambaina continues to represent his constituency with distinction and vigour, he remains a notable, influential figure in Nigerian politics, a beacon of inspiration for emerging leaders, and a shining light leading thousands out of poverty to prosperity, opportunity, and sustainable growth.

A Magistrate Court sitting in Ogba, Ikeja, Lagos, has set aside its earlier ex-parte order authorizing the arrest, remand, and “wanted” declaration of Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi, also known as Hammed Ajiran. The development follows the earlier declaration of Akanbi as wanted for alleged multiple murder by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Moshood Olorundare Jimoh, on February 19, 2026. However, in a ruling delivered today, Magistrate L.A. Owolabi of Magistrate Court 3 nullified the ex-parte order initially granted on February 16, 2026. In his decision, Magistrate Owolabi held that the order was obtained through the concealment of material facts.

The ruling sparked jubilation among members of the youth wing of the Ojomu royal family, who...
