Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has condemned the abduction of the Deputy Speaker of the Kebbi State House of Assembly, Hon. Samaila Bambu, describing the incident as another indication of the worsening security situation in the country.

Daily Post recalls that Bambu was abducted from his hometown in Bagudo Local Government Area on Friday evening, shortly after he observed his evening prayers.

Reacting in a statement on Saturday, Kalu said the development underscored the urgent need for coordinated efforts by all tiers of government to tackle insecurity.

“This incident in Kebbi once again shows that insecurity has become a nationwide problem that must be confronted without politics or bias,” Kalu said.

He urged the Federal Government to intensify its counter-insurgency operations and adopt more proactive measures to protect citizens across the country.

Security agencies have since launched a manhunt for the suspects, while residents have been urged to remain calm and cooperate with investigators.

Alleged genocide: You’ve ulterior motives – Hakeem Baba-Ahmed slams Trump

Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, a former aide to President Bola Tinubu, has accused US President Donald Trump of having ulterior motives for declaring Nigeria a “Country of Particular Concern.”

Baba-Ahmed made this allegation in a post on his verified Facebook page on Saturday, accusing the United States of being uncomfortable with the rise of strong, populous, and resource-rich African nations such as Nigeria, Sudan, Libya, and South Africa.

He called on Nigerians to be wary of internal division following Trump’s declaration of Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern.”

The former presidential aide maintained that the move would mark a troubling step by the American leader, who appears to have been misled by distorted narratives about religious killings in Nigeria.

He further explained that the declaration, allegedly tied to claims of genocide against Christians in Nigeria, ignores the complex reality of insecurity in the country, which affects both Muslims and Christians alike.

“The truth is that those killing Nigerians do not distinguish between Muslims and Christians. Ethnic and communal conflicts in Nigeria have claimed the lives of both.

“America and its partners have never felt at ease with African countries that have large populations and resources. They see nations like Nigeria as potential threats because we refuse to submit to foreign control,” he said.

Former presidential media aide Bashir Ahmad has opposed a move by United States Senator Ted Cruz to stop Sharia laws in Nigeria.

DAILY POST reports that Cruz, in a post on X while reacting to Nigeria’s designation by President Donald Trump, hinted at his bill “targeting those who implement blasphemy and Sharia laws in Nigeria.”

However, angered by the post, Bashir, who served as media aide to the late President Muhammadu Buhari, questioned why the US Senator would target those who implement Sharia law in Nigeria.

According to him, the lawmaker has no jurisdiction to oppose Sharia law in Nigeria, stating that the country will “defend” its sovereignty.

He wrote, “So a US senator is now proudly declaring they will target those who helped implement Sharia law in Nigeria, as if practicing or supporting Sharia is a crime.

“You are free to oppose Sharia in your own country, but you have no jurisdiction to dictate the laws of ours.

“We will defend our sovereignty and our right to determine our own legal affairs.”
