NAGA Congratulates Atiku Abubakar, Calls On All Nigerians To Rally Behind Him



The Nigerian Advocacy for Good Governance Alliance (NAGA – Diaspora) has congratulated Alhaji Atiku Abubakar "on his continued leadership and unwavering commitment to the Nigerian project."


The Group said in a statement jointly signed by its Global Coordinator,Tope Adesipo and Secretary, Ajede, on Friday, that "at this critical moment in our nation’s history, Atiku Abubakar stands as the candidate who best carries the hopes and aspirations of millions of Nigerians both at home and in the Diaspora."

They added in the statement that Atiku's vision of unity, economic revival, security, and genuine democratic reform resonates deeply with citizens, who they said yearn for a Nigeria that works for everyone, and not just a privileged few.

"We therefore call on all Nigerians — irrespective of party, region, ethnicity or religion — to rally round Atiku Abubakar and work collectively to defeat the current administration of President Bola Tinubu in the interest of our country.

"The time for change has come. Nigerians deserve better leadership that prioritizes competence, transparency, and inclusive development over the hardship and division that have defined the past three years," the statement read.

According to them, "NAGA remains firmly committed to good governance, accountability, and the enthronement of purposeful leadership. We stand ready to support any genuine effort that puts Nigeria on the path of progress, and we believe Atiku Abubakar currently embodies that hope."

They then urged "all well-meaning Nigerians, civil society groups, youth movements, and professionals in the Diaspora to close ranks and mobilize massively behind this cause," adding that the future of the country depends on the choices the people make today.

Court Sets Aside Arrest, Remand, Wanted Declaration Against Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi

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 court specifically noted that the counsel who filed and argued the application, Nosa Watson Uhumwangho, was under suspension by the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee at the time and therefore lacked the right of audience before the court. The ruling sparked jubilation among members of the youth wing of the Ojomu royal family, who...

Court Cautions Police, Orders Proper Invitation of Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi

A Lagos State Magistrate Court has cautioned the Lagos State Police Command and directed that proper procedures be followed in the handling of the case involving Mr. Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi, also known as Hammed Ajiran, in what is seen as a setback for individuals including Bashir Fakorede, Jide Akinloye, and Assistant Inspector-General of Police, AIG Jimoh Moshood. Presiding over proceedings in the Ogba Magisterial District, Magistrate A. J. Odueke, in Charge No: MISC/126/2026, held that the police must formally invite Akanbi rather than declare him wanted. The Court further stated that an order for arrest would only be considered if he fails to honour such an invitation. The Court noted that it was mindful of previous proceedings in Charge No: MCIK/60A/2026, where a similar application had earlier been set aside by another Magistrate on March 23, 2026, on the grounds of illegality. Consequently, the Court declined to entertain what it described as a repetition of a defective process. ...
