Senator Ibikunle Amosun Set To Declare Presidential Ambition

The 2023 general elections might be the mother of all elections in Nigeria as several political gladiators have been expressing interest in taking over from President Muhammadu Buhari after the elections, and the game appears to be getting interesting by the day.
However, information reaching has it that a former governor of Ogun State and the Senator representing Ogun Central, Ibikunle Amosun is set to join the bandwagon and declare his Presidential ambition in the first week of May, 2022.
Sources revealed that the APC chieftain decided to make his intention known at the end of the Holy Month of Ramadan and the Eid-Il-Fitri celebration as a staunch Muslim.
We were duly informed that the news has sent jittery into the camps of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, both of whom have since gone to town with their presidential ambitions.
Amosun is believed to be better positioned for the coveted office as a close pal of the northern oligarchy, headed by Presidential Muhammadu Buhari.
Recall that Amosun was in the All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) with key northern leaders and he was a member of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) with President Buhari.
The Abeokuta-born politician is also said to be enjoying the support of the northern governors and majority of the APC members in the Nigerian senate.
“Amosun is highly favoured for the coveted office. They love him in the north and they believe that he is the best candidate compared to Osinbajo and Tinubu.
“They believe he has all it takes to move the country forward as a reliable southern Muslim with little baggages compared to his contemporaries.
“The north will go for him any day and he is a very good friend of Mr. President, so they prefer him,” a source told us.
Amosun is credited with several transformational projects in Ogun State, especially in the area of infrastructure as governor from 2011 to 2019.
The turnaround in Abeokuta with masisve road construction, construction of bridges in many parts of the state, education and health transformations amongst numerous others as Ogun governor were said to have endeared Amosun to the powers that be, who we gathered believe is more reliable than others.

Police Restore Calm in Omu-Aran After Violence, Palace and Bank Attacks; Five Arrested

The Kwara State Police Command has restored order in Omu-Aran, Irepodun Local Government Area, following a wave of violent disturbances on May 25 and 26, 2025, sparked by the actions of unruly youths.

According to a statement released by the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Adetoun Ejire-Adeyemi, and made available to Just Event Online TV, the unrest was triggered by the arrest of a suspected drug dealer and arms trafficker known as Azeez, also called “A-Z,” by the Anti-Kidnapping Squad.
Azeez was reportedly freed by a mob while being transported to the police station. The group later attempted to storm the station but were successfully repelled by officers. The mob then moved to the Olomu’s Palace, where they set a motorcycle belonging to the monarch’s police orderly ablaze.
The situation escalated on the second day as the mob attacked the Olomu Aperan Microfinance Bank, vandalizing vehicles, the bank’s signboard, CCTV system, and other assets.
Police have arrested five suspects in connection with the attacks. Staff of the affected bank were safely evacuated and taken to the police station for protection.
In response, the Commissioner of Police, CP Adekimi Ojo, has directed enhanced patrols and surveillance across the community to maintain peace. The public has been urged to remain calm and refrain from spreading misinformation while investigations are ongoing.

UPDATE: Real Reason for Sheikh Gumi’s Deportation from Saudi Arabia Uncovered

Controversial Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, has been deported from Saudi Arabia and barred from participating in the 2025 Hajj pilgrimage—an action that has sparked widespread public reaction. Now, sources have revealed the reason behind the unexpected move.
According to reliable reports, Saudi authorities refused Gumi entry into Medina due to concerns over his alleged associations with groups involved in regional unrest in Nigeria. During routine immigration procedures, the cleric was reportedly questioned about his previous public statements and affiliations, particularly his consistent calls for negotiations and leniency toward armed factions in Northern Nigeria.
Sources claim Gumi was unable to provide responses that satisfied authorities, resulting in his immediate deportation—even though he held a valid Hajj visa. The incident has ignited intense discussions in Nigeria, raising questions about the potential impact on his public standing and influence.

JUST IN: Saudi Arabia Denies Sheikh Gumi Entry for Hajj, Deports Him to Nigeria

Saudi authorities have barred prominent Kaduna-based Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, from participating in the 2025 Hajj pilgrimage and have deported him back to Nigeria.

The cleric confirmed the development in a Facebook post on Monday, May 26, 2025, revealing that although he was granted a visa, he was denied entry into Medina where he intended to commence his Hajj rites.
“Despite being issued a visa, I was not permitted to enter Medina due to certain concerns linked to my political views,” Sheikh Gumi stated on his official Facebook page.
He also expressed appreciation to the Nigerian government, noting that officials have promised to engage Saudi authorities over the matter.
Sheikh Gumi was reportedly part of a group of religious scholars sponsored by the Nigerian Hajj Commission (NAHCON) for this year’s pilgrimage.
He arrived in Medina around 10:30 p.m. last Saturday aboard an Umza Air flight, accompanied by other clerics. However, immigration officials at the airport stopped him from proceeding into the country.
Following the deportation, Sheikh Gumi has since returned to Nigeria and resumed his daily activities, including teaching.
