Allegation Gone Wrong! Influencer Jailed for Spreading Tinubu Death Rumour
A Chief Magistrate Court in Abuja on Friday ordered that a 29‑year‑old social media influencer, Ghali Isma’il, be remanded at the Keffi Correctional Centre over allegations that he circulated false claims about President Bola Tinubu’s health and death.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
According to reports, Isma’il, through his verified TikTok account @bola_asiwaju, posted a viral video alleging that President Tinubu was critically ill and had died after eating a poisoned meal. The video sparked widespread reactions online before operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) arrested him in Kano.
He was arraigned on a two‑count charge. The first count, titled Publication of False News With Intent to Offend Public Peace, stated that on or about July 20, 2025, within the court’s jurisdiction, Isma’il knowingly uploaded a false video claiming he had official confirmation that the president was poisoned, with intent to cause public alarm—an offence punishable under Section 418 of the Penal Code Act.
The second count, Inciting Disaffection Against the Government, alleged that the same publication was intended to bring contempt upon or stir disaffection against the person of the president—an offence under Section 416 of the Penal Code Act.
After hearing arguments from both the defence and DSS prosecutors, Presiding Magistrate Ekpeyong Iyang refused bail and ordered that Isma’il remain in custody at Keffi Correctional Centre until the next hearing.
The case has been adjourned to August 19, 2025

The announcement was made by the ward chairman, Kanayo Chukwu, during a stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja. Chukwu explained that the decision followed a general ward meeting held on March 10, 2026, which examined several allegations against the senator.
According to him, the meeting, attended by over 2,000 participants, reviewed accusations including the confiscation of the ward register, running a parallel membership registration, frequent absence from ward meetings, failure to pay statutory party dues, and acts of insubordination toward party leadership.
“After due consideration of these serious breaches, a motion for the immediate suspension of Senator Ireti Kingibe was moved and ratified by a two-thirds majority of the executives present,” Chukwu said.
He added that the suspension had been formally forwarded to the chairman of the Abuja Municipal Area Council chapter, Omale Sule, for ratification in line with party procedures.
Confirming receipt of the resolution, Sule said the matter would follow the party’s constitutional process before any final decision is made. “As the local government chairman, I must await the official submission. Once received, it will be forwarded to the state chairman for further action,” he stated.
The FCT chairman of the party, Clement Ehijiator, also confirmed receiving the report, assuring that it would be examined in accordance with the party constitution. He noted that the meeting where the suspension was decided was initially convened to discuss membership registration and other party matters.
“As the constitutional chairman of the party in the FCT, I have received the report. We will review the allegations and take appropriate steps before forwarding it to the national leadership,” Ehijiator said.
During the meeting, party members also passed a vote of confidence in Ehijiator, commending his leadership of the ADC in the FCT.
