The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Abubakar Sa’ad III, has said that the best way to get out of the woods from the biting hardship facing many Nigerians is to return to God in prayers.
He said the hardship was a result of people’s deviation from the path of God.
“If anyone departs from the worship of God, definitely God will not look on his side, this is evident in many places in the Holy Qur’an. We will continue to give genuine advice to the government,” he said.
The sultan noted this at the grand opening of a Jum’ah Mosque in Guzape, Abuja, built by the Jama’atu Izalatil Bidi’a Wa’kamatis Sunnah (JIBWIS).
Represented by a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Alhaji Yayale Ahmed, the sultan said, “Everyone knows the situation in Nigeria right now but the solution is to go back to seek divine intervention and prayers. However, we should not supplicate for eye service but for genuine supplication, because the Lord has said that after hardship, there is relief.”
The Chairman of the Council of Scholars of JIBWIS, Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir, advised Nigerian judges to shun corruption.
He also enjoined other public officeholders to be truthful and transparent in running the affairs of their office.
Those who graced the event are the Vice President, Kashim Shettima, Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Ali Pantami, former governors, senators, among others.
Comedian, AYo Makun, professionally known as AY, has spoken about the late Nollywood actor, Alex Ekubo’s final moments.
Recall that Alex Ekubo died in Lagos hospital on Monday, May 11 2026, after a long battle with cancer.
Alex, who was diagnosed with stage four liver cancer in 2024, underwent a transplant.
In 2026, the liver failed again, and he died from complications hours after being placed on life support.
Speaking about Alex’s final moments in an Instagram post, Comedian AY, who was present at the hospital, revealed that Alex was smiling when he breathed his last breath.
“Some losses do not feel real no matter how many times you try to process them. Still struggling with the reality that you are gone, Alex.
From the laughter to the conversations, the random moments, the brotherhood, and all the memories we shared in this industry. This one hurts deeply.
“I was there. I saw you still smiling even in death. I saw the tears from friends and family. And honestly, a part of me is still in shock. Rest well my brother. You will be remembered beyond the lights, the cameras, and the fame”, AY wrote.
Also, Alex Ekubo’s friend, Godwin Nnadiekwe, revealed that Alex prepared his will before his death.
Godwin wrote on his Instagram story “Alex Ekubo. To think you already prepared your will, It’s a heartbreak I can’t quite describe. Rest well, my friend.”
The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has sentenced former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, to 75 years in prison for stealing public funds totalling about N33.8 billion.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, brought the case before the court.
Mamman was accused of money laundering and conspiracy involving funds meant for the Zungeru and Mambilla hydroelectric power projects.
The ruling marks a major escalation from the earlier stage, where the court only dismissed his no-case submission and ordered him to open his defence.
