News 2027: ‘Our mission to rescue, reposition Kebbi non-negotiable’ — Malami Published on April 11, 2026 By Mikal Attah googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1500386953281-8'); }); Former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, has declared that his mission to rescue and reposition Kebbi State is non-negotiable, vowing to press ahead with determination and unity. Malami said there would be no retreat or surrender in the effort to transform the state, expressing confidence that Kebbi would rise through collective resolve and divine support. He made the remarks on Thursday during his return to the state after a 123-day absence, drawing a massive crowd that disrupted activities across parts of Birnin Kebbi. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1524595905268-5'); }); Supporters thronged major roads from the airport into the state capital, chanting and waving flags of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, signalling his political re-emergence ahead of the 2027 elections. The large turnout brought movement and commercial activities to a standstill in several areas, as residents and traders struggled to navigate blocked roads. Eyewitnesses described the reception as unprecedented. A trader, Sani Abdullahi, said he was forced to shut his shop due to the crowd, noting that he had never witnessed such a large gathering in the state. Malami had been away from Kebbi since December 2025 following his arrest in Abuja by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over allegations still under legal review. He was later granted bail in March 2026 after months of detention and legal proceedings. Despite maintaining a relatively low profile since his return, supporters described the homecoming as symbolic of strong grassroots backing and renewed political momentum.
