How Attempts By Ex-AGF To Frame Allegedly Gov Nasir Failed

An alleged plot to unleash terror on Kebbi State has been laid bare, exposing a chilling conspiracy masterminded by a former House of Representatives member and allegedly backed by a former Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami (SAN) to frame Governor Nasir Idris of Kebbi State.

The former rep member, who is said to be known for his longstanding ties to terrorists, allegedly orchestrated the importation of criminals into Kebbi to destabilise Governor Nasir Idris’ administration.

The ex-lawmaker is said to be working closely with bandits and terrorists, a reputation that predates his political career.

Sources revealed that days before the plot’s execution in early September 2025, he travelled to Zamfara’s dense forests, holding clandestine meetings with notorious bandit leaders and suspected Lakurawa terrorists.

These meetings, held in remote hideouts near the Kebbi-Zamfara border, were orchestrated to recruit an army of criminals to wreak havoc in Kebbi, aiming to undermine Governor Idris’s security achievements and boost his flagging relevance in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) after his suspension from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in May 2025 for anti-party activities and corruption charges.

However, the ex rep member’s greed unravelled the plan. According to a former ally who was part of the plot but later opted out, the man pocketed most of the funds, releasing only $100,000 to the bandits with a promise of more “once they resumed work in Kebbi.”

This betrayal infuriated his ally, who abandoned the scheme and leaked details to authorities, blowing the lid off Koko’s treachery.

On  September 10, the Ex-AGF filed a petition to the National Security Adviser, Inspector General of Police, DSS, and other agencies, accusing Governor Idris of importing “foreign mercenaries” and arming terrorists.

This audacious attempt to frame Idris was said to be a smokescreen to deflect from the former rep member, who is now under investigation by security agencies for his bandit connections and the misappropriated $1 million.

A repentant bandit, who reportedly attended the Zamfara forest meetings, confessed: “The man came to us in the bush, promising big money to attack Kebbi towns.

A security operative in Kebbi, speaking anonymously added: “The former rep member is notorious for running with bandits—he’s been their political fixer for years.

As the Kebbi State Police Command and DSS deepen their investigation, calls for his arrest for terrorism financing and treason are deafening.

But sources close to the two personalities said that the allegations against them are untrue, and that it is being masterminded by some individuals to paint them in bad light before the members of the public and destroy their hard earned images.
