“IGP Asks Court To Reject El-Rufai’s ₦1 Billion Rights Claim”.
The Inspector-General of Police (IGP) has urged the Federal High Court in Abuja to dismiss the fundamental rights suit filed by former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
El-Rufai is seeking ₦1 billion in damages from the ICPC, the FCT Chief Magistrate Court, the IGP, and the Attorney-General of the Federation, claiming that a police search of his Asokoro residence violated his rights. Some items were reportedly recovered during the operation.
In a counter-affidavit, the IGP defended the search as lawful, asserting it was conducted under a valid court-issued warrant. The police also claimed the suit was an attempt by El-Rufai to evade an ongoing investigation and possible prosecution.
During Thursday’s proceedings, El-Rufai’s lawyer, Ubong Akpan, said he had not yet responded to the IGP’s affidavit but had replied to the ICPC’s. Lawyers for the ICPC and the police raised no objections to a request for more time.
Justice Joyce Abdulmalik adjourned the case to March 25 and ordered hearing notices to be served on the absent respondents: the FCT Chief Magistrate and the Attorney-General of the Federation.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has denied claims that he ordered the revocation of the licence of Rainbow Event Centre, which hosted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) national convention on February 14, 2026.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Wike said the party should stop blaming him for its internal issues, insisting that the ADC is already heading towards political failure on its own.
The ADC had alleged that FCT authorities denied it access to venues for its convention and attempted to stop the use of the Rainbow Event Centre before the event eventually held there.
Reacting, Wike said investigations have already been launched into the matter and directed his Chief of Staff to identify any staff member involved in the alleged interference.
He stated: “We will not allow people to just wake up and say the FCT Minister did this or that. I have told my Chief of Staff to find out from the company which staff member interfered. We will get to the bottom of this.”
Meanwhile, Wike also commented on former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s political ambitions, saying he would have to wait until 2031 to contest for the presidency.
He said there is “no space” for Atiku in 2027, adding that he could try again in 2031 when he would be 82 years old.
Wike made the remarks during an inspection of ongoing road projects in Kuje Area Council on Thursday, while also criticising Atiku’s repeated attacks on the current administration and insisting that President Bola Tinubu has performed better than previous leadership.

She made this known during a conversation with ZeZe Millz, where she revealed that she has dated different types of men over the years from various backgrounds.

Cuppy said her perspective on relationships has changed with time, especially after her younger sister, Temi Otedola, got married to singer Mr Eazi.
She noted that she now prefers a simple and peaceful relationship, adding that she is no longer interested in complicated lifestyles or public attention.
She said: “I’ve dated all kinds of men, but now all I want is a simple 9–5 man with no social media. I once dated a bus driver I met on a dating app that I paid £400 to join.”
Cuppy has previously been in the public eye for her relationships, including her engagement to British boxer Ryan Taylor in 2022, which ended shortly after. She has also been linked to music executive Asa Asika.
