Buhari Book Reveals Failed Plot by Aides to Impose Ahmad Lawan as APC Presidential Candidate Using Fake Orders A newly launched biography of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari has exposed a dramatic attempt by influential aides to manipulate the 2022 All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential primaries by forging presidential directives to install then-Senate President Ahmad Lawan as the party's consensus candidate. The revelations come From Soldier to Statesman: The Legacy of Muhammadu Buhari, authored by Dr. Charles Omole and unveiled on December 15, 2025, at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja. The high-profile event was attended by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. According to the book, on the eve of the APC primaries, aides close to Buhari allegedly issued counterfeit orders to top security chiefs – including the Inspector-General of Police (Usman Alkali Baba), the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), and the Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA). The forged directives instructed the deployment of security forces to ensure Lawan's emergence as the consensus candidate. Former IGP Alkali Baba reportedly rejected the orders outright, consulted his counterparts, and directly verified with Buhari. The late president denied issuing any such instructions, stating he had no preferred candidate and emphasizing that Nigerians should freely choose their leader. Buhari reportedly laughed upon hearing that celebrations had erupted in Lawan's neighborhood over the supposed endorsement. "He made it clear: he had not anointed anyone. Nigerians should choose, and the security agencies must not interfere," the book quotes sources close to the events. The biography portrays this incident as evidence of Buhari's principled restraint, resisting the abuse of state institutions for political gain. It also details other internal power struggles, including the 2018 sacking of DSS boss Lawal Daura and a family dispute in the Presidential Villa involving gunfire.

It is an insult to more than 232 million people, to our Constitution and to our democratic institutions. But anyway, who do you think you are to look down on our country?

I want these apes out of our countries

Why are these terrorists not kidnapping imams the way they kidnap clergies?

IMPORTANT VIDEO UPDATE: The 24 abducted Kebbi schoolgirls who regained freedom The 24 schoolgirls abducted from Government Girls Secondary School, Maga, Kebbi state, have been rescued.

It might look like I’m a conspiracy theorist but I don’t think these girls were truly abducted. Don’t even get me started on the AI photos they were circulating. It looks to me like “they” wanted to prove that Muslims are also being targeted and bundled a group of girls in a secured environment and waited a while to bring them out, coupled with the fact that no arrest was made. These terrorists are too bloody to have these girls smiling and well looked after like this. Something is veryyyyyy fishy and until the kidnapped Catholic girls and boys are released just like these ones, I no go believe anything.

UPDATE ON THIS ISSUE🚨🚨: OGUN POLICE COMMAND DEPLOY TACTICAL TEAMS ON SURVEILLANCE OPERATION IN AJEBO COMMUNITY … assures residents of public safety The Ogun State Police Command has reassured residents of Ajebo community in Obafemi-Owode Local Government that there is no imminent threat of attack in the area following a viral video circulating on social media that herdsmen are preparing to unleash violence on the host community. The Commissioner of Police, Ogun State Command, CP Lanre Ogunlowo, deployed the Command’s tactical team, led by the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Operations) to assess security situation in the area, in conjunction with Amotekun Corps, So-Safe Corps, Police Community Relations Committee (PCRC), local hunters and Vigilante Group of Nigeria (VGN) to undertake thorough intelligence-led assessment in and around Ajebo community. The operatives discovered the Fulani settlers in Ajebo are not hostile migrants but long-standing residents, living peacefully within the community. Children and women were seen in their temporary shelters but no arms or suspicious activities were detected. No adult male was present. The men had travelled to Oyo State for trading activities, which is consistent with their routine economic pattern. A further sweep of the settlement revealed an extended RUGA location that has reportedly been in existence for over ten years. The Kabiyesi, Oba Rueben Oluwole, who is said to have authorized the allocation of land to the settlers, has been invited for clarification. Additionally, the Baale of Alapako, where another cluster of Fulani huts were identified, has also been invited for a meeting with the Commissioner of Police. The combined team of security agencies is maintaining surveillance within the forest area, approximately 10km from the main community. Their presence is strictly precautionary, as the settlers were found to be unarmed and living peacefully. The Ogun State Police Command reassures members of the public that proactive intelligence measures remain fully in place, and citizens are advised to remain calm, vigilant, and to avoid sharing unverified information capable of inciting fear.
