Osimhen has become a force that every media platform wants to speak to at the end of every match, whether he scores or not, even when he didn't win man of the match award. The pitch-side presenters left the goalscorer and Man of the Match winner against Liverpool to engage in a lengthy interaction with Osimhen. They even asked him about his daughter, as they have noticed that the little angel is often excited when joining him to celebrate in front of Galatasaray fans, waving her hands to the crowd. Osimhen mentioned, "Yes, we practiced celebrating together at home; that’s why she can clap her hands with the fans and wave at them while we are in front of these amazing fans." Osimhen is really putting food on the table for so many people in the world. When he speaks, people listen, and media outlets get paid to feed their families. 1 Like 1 Share

| Politics › Ayoade Davidson Ojeniyi Describes Some Of Obasanjo Children Resemblance. by Marvieduke(op): 10:00am On Mar 06 |
Baba is 89, Jagun Jagun General Chief Dr Olusegun Obasanjo is 89 today. Happy birthday to Jagun Jagun Olusegun Ajasegun Aremu Matthew Ogunboye Obasanjo PhD GCFR born 05 03 1937 now 88 years official but about 92 years actual. OBJ's father was Amos Adigun Obaluaiyesanjo(Obasanjo) Bankole. OBJ's mother was Bernice Asabi Bankole. OBJ's only sibling sister is Adunni Oluwole Obasanjo. All the extended family members are bearing Bankole. Iyabo and Dare extremely resemble Baba too much. All other children resemble Baba. Baba use his handwriting to write the names of the 21 children and he personally requested that Ebenezer Obey to chant the names into the live play during his 87th birthday. People interpreted that when Baba goes home, nobody will be able to come forward that he or she is a child of Baba. Nearly all the 21 children have a PhD. There are no children that are not brilliant. I only doubt Stella's son Olumuyiwa Obasanjo. All others are extremely brilliant like Baba. Baba angrily obtained his PhD by doing all the assignments, writing all the exams etc on his own. Baba is very arrogant when it comes into books. Nobody can help him to write a Memo. Nobody. Baba writes letters a lot and his letters were effective against Shagari and IBB. Tinubu, a master strategist, no letter can move him. Baba's ambition was to become a Prof of Geography in life and nothing more. But Awolowo Government had only one scholarship for Baptist Boys High School Abeokuta. They gave it to MKO. The rest is history. Baba is Owu ponbele. Baba was never an Ibo. The records of his father are in the archives of Owu Baptist Church Ibogun Olaogun, Ifo Ogun State. His father died a drunkard. Baba wrote it in My Watch. He behaves Owu, strong head and very stingy. All the children are behaving Owu ponbele. In fact two of them rebelled against Baba: Iyabo and Gbenga. They are defending their mother Remi Obasanjo. Let Alake call the two to order now !!!! Baba won the Biafran war and almost captured Ojukwu if Ojukwu did not run to Ivory Coast on 11 01 1970. Baba is a permanent "enemy" of Prof Wole Soyinka. Baba is suspected to be older than WS who is now officially older than Baba. Baba used 3 birthday days when struggling at the beginning. Eventually he settled with this current birthday and year when he got to Army but he forgot to adjust for those calling him Buoda like late Onaolapo Soleye and WS etc. Many of his juniors were/are now older than him. He chose the date by himself. His father and mother said he was born on Ibokun Olaogun market day, that she could not go to the market again on that day as earlier planned. Baba is always fighting PBAT permanently. Baba's best friend was a gentleman late Owu Prince Bola Ajibola, SAN, the founder of the popular Crescent University Abeokuta. They never fought in their life. Baba fought another top Owu man late Akin Olugbade. The fight ended when Pa Akin Olugbade died. Baba's favorite child is Dr Kofo Obasanjo Blackshire who married a white Baptist Pastor. Baba is a "professional" Baptist man. Hope all the WILL will not go to her  ? All other children are quiet naturally with the exception of Iyabo. Even Gbenga is quiet naturally. Baba's chicken used to be the best. He stopped it bc people are thiefing the chickens. The pilferages never affected the Profit. We advised Baba to treat the stolen chickens as part of the cost of production. Baba said Mo ti gbo. Baba is stingy. Baba's Presidential Library is the best in Nigeria with lakes and Zoo. You have to pay to enter. WS wrote in Who Will Watch the Watchers, that how did Baba get the cowries to build the Presidential Library ? WS said that he used his Nobel Prize money to build his IjeGba forest house. IBB incoming Presidential Library May swallow Baba's Library.Today, Baba will launch 2 new books. Let there be peace in Yorubaland. There will be a country oooooo !!!! Look, PBAT must not fail óoooo. Frankly speaking, I can't recognize the daughter that read Agric up to PhD Level. I met her once when she helped to study our farms in Ekpoma. She was black and carried Baba's face. She didn't want to discuss Baba but only our Ekpoma farms. She said that all those she has met in Life were always interested in discussing her dad. She didn't like it. The colour is confusing me, I think she is Dami. Ayoade Davidson Ojeniyi FCA 05 03 2025 1 Share

Prophecy fulfilled: Primate Ayodele’s prediction has come true shortly after he foretold that “a sitting president will pass away before 2027". Now, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has d¡£d. Recall that Primate Elijah Ayodele, head of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church in Nigeria, recently predicted that a "sitting president" would die between now and 2027, without naming a specific person or country. This led to widespread speculation on social media. Just days later, the supreme leader, who holds a position comparable to a president or prime minister in other nations, passed away. Primate Ayodele has proven to be a true man of God. 2 Likes 1 Share

| Celebrities › Chess Master Tunde Onakoya Shares Touching Story Of His Hip Replacement Surgery by Marvieduke(op): 9:08am On Mar 01 |
"A pivotal moment for me after living my entire life with debilitating Leg pain (Avascular Necrosis) from a wrongly administered injection when I was a 9 months old"- Chess Master Tunde Onakoya shares touching story as he marks exactly 1 year since his hip replacement surgery July 11 Today marks exactly 1 year since my hip replacement surgery. A pivotal moment for me after living my entire life with debilitating Leg pain (Avascular Necrosis) from a wrongly administered injection when I was a 9 months old. This experience completely changed my life and taught me to never take the little things for granted. The recovery months sent me into deep depression as I had to learn how to walk again as a child, and rely on other people to do even the simplest tasks. It truly felt like the world had moved on and I was just static. But God’s promise and the hard lessons he was teaching me in that season was that I be STILL and let the world move on, because someday I would move again and the world will STANDSTILL for me. The world has indeed stood still for me especially in the last couple of months, as I started playing chess again, Broke a world record, Started playing the piano again,Travelled the world, Spoke on Global stages and Helped more children find their place in the world again. Maybe danced a little more as well😊. I finally found the courage to chase all the things that set my soul on fire. The surgeons say the titanium implants have a lifespan of 15-20 years if you’re lucky, so I guess this is year one of being a cyborg. I’m still recovering and not sure what the future holds, but one thing I know that’s certain is God will hold my hands through all of it. This frail body and these broken bones will house the greatest spirit humanity will ever know. I’m living❤️ For everyone going through their own version of being static or nursing a pain no one else understands, I hope you don’t give up on yourself. Those battle scars will tell a beautiful story that healing is possible. Someday you will move again and the world will STANDSTILL. Source: Tunde Onakoya| X 1 Share

| Crime › Court Sentence Living Faith Pastor To Death By Hanging For Murder by Marvieduke(op): 8:50am On Feb 21 |
Court Sentences Living Faith Pastor To Death By Hanging For Murder of his Landlord Akwa Ibom State High Court sitting in Uyo, on Thursday 20th February 2026, sentenced a 29-year-old Resident Pastor of Living Faith Church, also known as Winners Chapel, Ifa Ikot Ubo–Ifa Ikot Okpon Branch, Uyo, Prince Emmanuel Umoh to death by hanging for the murder of his landlord, Gabriel Bassey Edward. The judge, Justice Gabriel Ette convicted the pastor for stabbing to death, Edward, a 500-level Civil engineering student whose academic result, released posthumously, showed he graduated with First Class honours. From the facts of the case made available, the deceased, was a student of University of Uyo had relocated to his late mother’s property at Ifa Ikot Ubo to secure the estate and live closer to school. His mother, before her death in December 2019, had established a nursery school on the property. Evidence before the court showed that Edward lived in a two-bedroom flat attached to a long hall within the compound alongside his younger brother, Emmanuel Edward Bassey. The hall, originally constructed for school purposes, was later rented to Living Faith Church for worship activities at an annual rent of ₦150,000, with the consent of his father, Emana Bassey Edward, a retired school principal. The church was allowed to commence use of the hall, even before full payment of rent. Prince Emmanuel Umoh was subsequently posted to the branch as its pioneer resident pastor. Evidence presented in court revealed that ”on 21st December, 2020, the defendant was seen entering the deceased’s compound. Neighbours later reported hearing loud screams of “Jesus” from inside the premises. Shortly afterward, the defendant emerged wearing a white garment stained with blood, claiming he had fallen while attempting to hang a banner. ‘The deceased was never seen alive again. On 26th December, 2020, a day after Christmas, Edward’s decomposing body was discovered in his room, wrapped in a mat with multiple lacerations. A butcher’s knife was found beside him. ”The defendant, being the last person seen with Edward and possessing unexplained bloodstains while having repeated access to the premises, was promptly arrested and charged with murder. The defendant was arraigned on 6th December, 2021, on a one-count charge of murd£r. He pleaded not guilty. To establish its case, the prosecution called six witnesses, including the deceased’s father, Emana Bassey Edward, who testified as the first prosecution witness (PW1). PW1 told the court that shortly after the church began operations, the defendant requested permission to store church chairs and other items inside the deceased’s flat for security reasons, as the hall lacked doors and windows. The request was granted. However, the arrangement soon became problematic. Whenever the defendant needed access to church property kept in the flat, the decæsed, often away, had to return home to grant access, incurring transport expenses that were not refunded. Following complaints, PW1 directed his son to give the defendant a spare key to ease access. The prosecution led evidence that after the key was handed over, items belonging to the decæsed’s late mother, including clothes, plates and other valuables, began to go missing. The defendant, being in possession of the spare key, became a suspect. When confronted, the defendant claimed he had lost the key. The matter was reported to the church’s senior pastor, Owoidoho Etuk Akpan, who testified as a defence witness, who provided ₦5,000 to enable the decæsed change the locks. According to evidence before the court, no further items went missing after the locks were changed. Tensions later arose between the decæsed and the defendant over the handling of rent money reportedly paid for the use of the hall and intended for repairs. In a detailed and emotionally charged judgment read for over two hours, Justice Gabriel Ette described the case as “very sympathetic,” recounting the efforts of the deceased’s late mother to build and develop the property for educational purposes before her dæth. The court found that the prosecution proved its case beyond reasonable doubt. In sentencing the defendant, Justice Ette condemned the act, noting the irony of a religious leader taking a life within church premises. “Life is sacred and those who represent God on earth should teach that. It is an irony and quite appalling when a man who claims to be the representative of the divine on earth stoops so low as to denigrate the very essence of his calling and take someone’s life in the premises of the church.” Justice Ette held. He further stated that individuals who betray public trust in such a manner, pose a danger to society and must face the full weight of the law. “Having found you guilty as charged, I hereby sentence you to dæth by hanging,” the court held. #winnerschapelinternational #winnerschapel #AkwaIbom 1 Like 1 Share

| Celebrities › Photos Of Mr Eazi With Grey Hair Go Viral by Marvieduke(op): 6:46pm On Feb 09 |
Mr Eazi Trends as Viral Photos of His Grey Hair Spark Online Buzz Nigerian music star and entrepreneur, Mr Eazi, is currently making headlines across social media — and this time, it’s not for a new song or business deal, but for his noticeably greying hair. The 34-year-old singer began trending in early February 2026 after recent public appearances, including at the Africa Prosperity Dialogue 2026, where fans spotted prominent silver-grey strands. Side-by-side comparison photos showing his earlier darker-haired look and his current greying style quickly went viral on X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and other platforms. The Viral Look That Sparked Debate Social media users wasted no time turning the photos into memes and hot takes. A wave of humorous comments linked the new look to his 2025 marriage to fashion influencer and actress Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola. Their wedding celebrations reportedly spanned luxurious locations including Monaco, Dubai, and Iceland. Some playful reactions online read: “Marriage never reach 2 years Mr Eazi hair don turn gray, fear women.” “It’s not up to two years that Mr Eazi got married and grey hair is everywhere. Fear women.” “The first man to grow grey hair after marriage.” However, not everyone agrees with the “marriage stress” narrative. Fans Offer More Realistic Explanations Many supporters have pushed back, suggesting more grounded reasons for the singer’s new look. Some point out that greying hair can simply be genetic or part of natural ageing — especially at 34. Others believe he may have previously dyed his hair and has now decided to embrace a more natural appearance. There are also those who credit his growing responsibilities. Beyond music, Mr Eazi is the founder of EmPawa Africa and has expanded into multiple investments and ventures across the continent. Supporters argue that building a business empire while maintaining a global music career could naturally come with stress and maturity. As one fan put it, “Grey hair doesn’t mean old, it means experience. The hair is just adding extra character.” From Dark to Distinguished Older photos from his wedding era show the singer with noticeably darker hair, making the contrast with his recent public appearances even more striking — and meme-worthy. Despite the online chatter, the conversation has largely remained lighthearted, with many praising his “distinguished” and mature look. Others have defended his privacy, urging critics not to overanalyze a natural change in appearance. As of now, Mr Eazi has not publicly addressed the trending topic, allowing the internet to continue its classic Nigerian social media cruise. Grey hair or not, the Afrobeats star remains focused on his music, philanthropy, and expanding business ventures — proving that a few silver strands are only adding to his brand of experience and style. 5 Likes 4 Shares

It took me years to realise that Governor Rashidi Ladoja was the major financier behind many of Túndé Kelani’s Mainframe Films. This became clear when I noticed his name credited as Executive Producer in one of the movies, which made me pause and think, “Isn’t this Ladoja of Ibadan?” I later watched Túndé Kelani himself during an interview on YouTube, where he spoke about the financial support provided by the new Olúbàdàn to the Nigerian film industry. Actress Bukky Wright has also publicly acknowledged this support here. Bukky Wright, who has been acting with Wale Adenuga Productions since 1996, rose to prominence in 1999 after starring in the critically acclaimed political drama Saworoide. Since then, she has remained a household name in the Yoruba film industry. God bless the new Olúbàdàn. 2 Shares

| Celebrities › Actress Angela Okorie Rearrested Shortly After Release From Suleja Prison. by Marvieduke(op): 9:02am On Feb 04 |
Actress Angela Okorie Rearrested Shortly After Release from Suleja Prison Nollywood actress Angela Okorie has been rearrested by operatives of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command just hours after regaining her freedom from the Suleja Correctional Centre. The actress was reportedly taken back into custody on Tuesday afternoon, shortly after completing her bail conditions and being released by prison officials. Her rearrest is said to be based on a fresh petition filed by a businesswoman who accused Okorie of owing her ₦5 million, an amount she allegedly refused to repay. Sources claim that another actress, who is close to Angela Okorie and reportedly aware of the debt, encouraged the businesswoman to formally petition the police. This development allegedly prompted the immediate rearrest. There are speculations that the actress may be detained further today. Recall that Angela Okorie was first arrested on January 26 in Lagos and flown to Abuja, where she was arraigned before the Federal High Court on charges bordering on cyber$talking and cyb£rbullying. The charges followed a petition reportedly filed by her colleague, actress Mercy Johnson Okojie. After her arraignment, the court ordered that Okorie be remanded at the Suleja Correctional Centre pending the hearing of her bail application. On January 30, the presiding judge, Justice Emeka Nwite, granted her bail in the sum of ₦5 million with one surety. The court ruled that the surety must be a Level 13 civil servant and must submit an affidavit of means, along with an appointment letter and evidence of last promotion. The judge also directed that both Okorie and her surety submit two passport photographs each to the court registrar, while the surety’s residence must be verified. Until all conditions were fully met, the actress was to remain in custody. After perfecting the bail conditions earlier today, Angela Okorie was released—only to be rearrested moments later by FCT police officers over the new petition. 1 Share

| Politics › Apostle Bodmas Prince Kemepadei Respond To Allegation Of Patrick Peresuodei Murd by Marvieduke(op): 12:03pm On Feb 03 |
Apst Bodmas Kemepadei WROTE THE UNFORTUNATE DEATH OF PERESUODEI: AN UNFORTUNATE LOSS, I AM OPEN TO INVESTIGATION AND ARREST IF FOUND GUILTY AS I CLARIFY THE FALSE NARRATIVE OF MURDER AGAINST ME. Personally, i would have maintained silence to commiserate with the family while awaiting further legal actions against me, if any. However, owing to my respect for traditional institutions, law and order, this response is propelled by the yesterday 3-days ultimatum given by the Amassoma Youth Association supported by the Southern-Ijaw federated youth Council, these are organizations that i hold at high esteem, and i consider myself a subject to their authority. I have chosen to maintain silence and mourn with the family over the unfortunate and untimely demise of Patrick Peresuodei, who until his death, was under investigation for a case of threat to life against my person, Criminal Defamation and Cyberbullying. I appreciate all concerns, i understand the flow of emotions, death is not something to take lightly, reasons why i would like to provide clarification regarding the false media narrative painted against me. This situation is both tragic and unfortunate. As a father, a religious leader and a youth leader. I am deeply hurt, and I am profoundly saddened. While I sympathize with the grieving family, I would also not condone acts of defamation and Cyberbullying against my character and person. On the 20th day of December, 2025, the deceased engaged in threatening my life, cyberbullying and stalking behavior towards me and my family. He accused me of fraud and deception and made threats of physical harm on me, claiming he would use an AK-47 rifle against me, despite our having no prior acquaintance, contact or altercations. In response, I sought to avoid any interaction with him, even as he continued to threaten my life and harass me with his religious beliefs. Shockingly, on the 15th day of January, 2026, he released a video reiterating his threats of coming to attack me with his boys, this was after he had earlier threatened to use an Ak-47 rifle on me. Concerned for my safety, I reported the matter to the Nigeria Police Force, Bayelsa Command. Subsequently, he was apprehended in Amassoma by officers of the Nigeria Police Force. While planning to attack me, along with his younger brother, who interfaced with the officers of the Nigeria Police Force. He was detained by the Nigeria Police, pending further legal proceedings, as I was determined to pursue the matter in court. On January 17th, 18th, being weekends, the matter was not taken to court. On January 19th, 2026, as my legal team and I prepared for court, I received a call from the police informing me that the deceased was exhibiting signs of dementia, mental instability owing to intake of hard drugs and other illicit substance which has been in his system before his arrest, these were the words of the investigating police officer. On the 20th day of January, i called the Police Force to remind them that the matter should proceed to court, but they explained that the deceased mental condition was not yet stable as the hard drugs were beginning to have so much effect on him, therefore recommended releasing him for medical treatment. On 21st day of January, 2026, I was informed on phone by the Police that the deceased has been granted bail to family members. It is important to mention that following the arrest of the deceased individual, I did not have any contact or sight of him until the news of his passing was disseminated through social media platforms with false accusations levelled against me. That i had caused his death through physical assault, which is a false narrative painted against my person. Upon hearing the news, I was in shock, my intent was for justice to prevail through the court, as i would not wish him death. This death issue, was further misconstrued by an individual named "Pered Keme", who made a false post being relied upon today, he asserted that i abducted the deceased, physically assaulted him and returned him dead to his family, without any investigation, others, including "Didi Dickson Opuene", propagated this false narrative. Though, i have instructed my legal team to proceed with a defamation suit for the sake of posterity. I have also listened to a different narrative from deceased sister contrary to the first report, who confirmed the deceased was in police custody and not assaulted and dumped as earlier propagated, she confirmed in native language that the deceased was in good condition in police custody but asserted that i came to the station to assault the deceased with dangerous weapons, which is false. This is a matter to be determined by the law, but to me they are false intended to rub my good name in the mud, as i had no sight of the deceased after January 16th until his unfortunate demise, this can be confirmed by the Nigeria Police Force. Upon hearing the news of his death, i immediately contacted the police unit, and they assured me that these allegations are unrelated to me. Additionally, the Amassoma Police Division has requested that I provide a statement, which I have obliged to. Out of respect for the grieving family, I had initially chose not to respond until the traditional three-day mourning period concluded. However, if these facts are not presented to the public, falsehoods may become accepted as truth. To the family, I extend my sympathies, since the news of his death, my family and my entire support base has been in mourning, we regard human life as sacred, such it is painful that he died in this manner. To the Amassoma Youth Association, i will continue to respect your authority because my maternal lineage is traceable to the ogboin kingdom. I will only ask that you follow this matter diligently as i will always respond to your demands as we all find ways to uncover the truth. Finally, i am open to investigation, i am not bigger than the laws of this country, but i must say that this death is unfortunate. This clarification is not to accuse anybody or shy away from commiserating with the family, death is not something to be burdened by one individual, it is a collective responsibility. This account accurately reflects the events as they transpired, as i anticipate any legal implications, which I am ready to defend my self on the altar of truth within the ambit of the law. I reiterate once again that it is a sad loss, not just to the family, the Amassoma community, the Ogboin kingdom, but to the entire Ijaw Nation. 1 Share

“I Will Decide and Announce Who Becomes the Next Rivers Governor” – Wike The political temperature in Rivers State continues to rise as the 2027 governorship election draws closer. Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and former Rivers State Governor, **Nyesom Wike**, has made a bold declaration that has sent shockwaves through the state's political landscape. In recent public appearances and interactions with supporters across various local government areas, Wike has asserted his influence over the state's future leadership, stating unequivocally that he will personally decide and announce who succeeds the incumbent governor, **Siminalayi Fubara**, in 2027. ### A Familiar Playbook from the Political Godfather Wike's statement echoes his well-established reputation as a dominant force in Rivers politics. In 2023, he handpicked and successfully installed Fubara as governor under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ticket, following a tightly controlled primary process. That move was widely seen as an effort to maintain indirect control over the state's vast resources and political machinery even after leaving office. However, the once-cordial relationship between mentor and protégé quickly deteriorated into one of Nigeria's most intense political rivalries. Disputes over appointments, control of party structures, and access to state resources led to open confrontation, culminating in a six-month state of emergency declared by President Bola Tinubu in early 2025, during which Fubara was suspended. Although Fubara was reinstated in September 2025 and later defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), the underlying power struggle has only intensified. Wike has repeatedly described the 2023 choice of Fubara as a "mistake" that will not be repeated. ### Recent Statements Signal Determination During visits to areas such as Khana, Okrika, Ahoada, and Ogu/Bolo in late 2025 and early 2026, Wike has sharpened his rhetoric: - He warned residents against repeating "past political mistakes," asking crowds if they had received "thank you" from the current administration — to which they reportedly chorused "No!" - He declared that his camp would "correct the mistake" of 2023 and ensure a more reliable successor takes charge. - In one particularly pointed remark, he emphasized that he would back a candidate he could "rely on and sleep with his eyes closed," implying direct personal endorsement and selection. These comments have been widely interpreted as Wike positioning himself as the ultimate decider of Rivers State's next governor, regardless of party platforms or incumbent advantages. ### The High-Stakes Battle for 2027 The contest for who "delivers" the next governor in Rivers State has become a major talking point. Analysts identify four key factors that will likely shape the outcome: 1. **President Tinubu's body language** and federal backing 2. **The popular vote** from Rivers electorate 3. **Fubara's standing** within the APC national leadership 4. **Wike's formidable political structure**, which still controls many local government and ward-level networks Despite Fubara's control of state resources and machinery — and reports of a substantial financial war chest — Wike has dismissed money as the deciding factor, insisting that loyalty, structure, and grassroots mobilization will prevail. ### Reactions and Implications The declaration has drawn sharp responses. Some political figures and commentators have criticized it as undemocratic and overreaching, with one prominent voice declaring, "There is only one governor in Rivers State, whether you like it or not." Others see Wike's assertiveness as a continuation of godfatherism in Nigerian politics — a pattern where former leaders attempt to retain influence long after leaving office. As Rivers State enters what many describe as a defining phase ahead of 2027, all eyes remain on Wike's next moves, Fubara's counter-strategy, and how national APC dynamics will influence the local battle. One thing appears certain: the battle for the soul of Rivers politics is far from over, and Nyesom Wike intends to play a decisive role in determining its outcome 1 Share

| Crime › Nollywood Actor Stanley Amandi Arrested Over Alleged Role In Coup Plot by Marvieduke(op): 3:58pm On Jan 30 |
Nollywood actor and director Stanley Amandi has been taken into custody alongside several military officers accused of planning a forceful overthrow of President Bola Tinubu’s government. According to a source in the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), Amandi, who is also the former chairman of the AGN, Enugu State chapter, was arrested in September 2025. The filmmaker was allegedly engaged as a media propagandist by the suspected coup planners, who were said to be working towards the assassination of senior government figures. Government officials familiar with the investigation had earlier revealed that the accused officers allegedly mapped out a violent seizure of power, with President Tinubu, Vice President Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio and Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbas reportedly listed for assassination. On Monday, the Defence Headquarters confirmed the existence of an unlawful plot to unseat the Tinubu administration, adding that the implicated officers would face trial before military judicial panels.

On Monday, the Defence Headquarters confirmed the existence of an unlawful plot to unseat the Tinubu administration, adding that the implicated officers would face trial before military judicial panels. In a statement, the Defence Headquarters said investigations had been concluded and submitted to “appropriate superior authority in line with extant regulations.” The military described the probe as “comprehensive,” explaining that it covered “all circumstances surrounding the conduct of the affected personnel.” The statement further noted that the inquiry uncovered “a number of officers with allegations of plotting to overthrow the government,” stressing that such conduct was “inconsistent with the ethics, values and professional standards required of members of the Armed Forces of Nigeria.” Amandi has appeared in and worked behind the scenes on several Nollywood projects, building a career as an actor, director and production manager. His film credits include The Album (director), Tiger King (director and producer, 2008), Cornerstone (2019) and Once Upon a Dream (2024), where he featured as an actor. His most recent Instagram post was made on September 19, 2025, days before his arrest. 1 Share
