There was tension in the Federal Capital Territory on Tuesday when a team of soldiers stopped the Minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike, and senior officials of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) from entering a disputed land in Gaduwa District.

Eyewitnesses said the minister arrived with his convoy for an inspection visit, but uniformed soldiers guarding the area refused to let them in. The confrontation quickly became heated, drawing the attention of onlookers and media cameras.

In a video that has since gone viral, Wike is seen questioning the soldiers’ authority to deny him access, insisting that no one is above the government.

“You cannot be higher than the government. You cannot be carrying a gun to intimidate anybody. I am not one of those you can intimidate,” he said firmly to one of the officers.

The soldiers, however, maintained that they were acting under direct instructions and that the land in question had already been allocated. FCTA officials at the scene disagreed, describing the area (identified as Plot 1946) as a buffer zone not approved for private development.

Sources allege that the property is being claimed by a former Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Awwal Zubairu Gambo (rtd.), and that the soldiers on site were under his directive to secure the land.

The standoff has stirred wide public debate, with many Nigerians expressing concern that uniformed personnel could openly confront a serving minister. Others faulted Wike’s approach, saying such matters should be handled through official investigations rather than on-site confrontations.

Commentators have also raised questions about the recurring tension between civil authorities and the military over land administration in Abuja.

As of the time of filing this report, neither the Nigerian Army nor the FCTA had issued an official statement on the incident.

Adeboye urges Federal Government to take out terrorists and sponsors ahead of possible US action


The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has called on the Federal Government to move decisively against terrorists and the networks that support them, warning that the country must act before the United States considers any military steps.

Adeboye gave the advice during the November Holy Ghost Service. He noted recent signals from Washington and explained that Nigeria must not wait for foreign intervention before addressing the persistent killings and security failures.

He advised President Bola Tinubu to open diplomatic talks with the United States while giving the nation’s security chiefs a clear and limited period to deliver tangible results. According to him, any directive from the President should include the neutralisation of terrorists along with the arrest of their financiers, regardless of their social or political standing.

Adeboye also stated that Nigeria should not expect outside powers to come to its defence if the situation escalates. He warned that global partners may offer statements of concern but are unlikely to take risks on Nigeria’s behalf.

He concluded with a reminder that innocent citizens continue to suffer and that this is a moment that demands action rather than long debates.

The case involving actress Regina Daniels and her brother, Samuel Ojeogwu, drew renewed attention today after fresh statements from both the actress and the police.

According to the Federal Capital Territory Police Command, Samuel Ojeogwu was taken into custody after he failed to honour several invitations relating to a petition filed against him. The petition includes allegations of conspiracy, trespass, assault, cyberbullying and theft. The police noted that the arrest followed due procedure and was not influenced by outside pressure.

Regina Daniels released a video in which she appeared distressed while speaking about her brother’s continued detention. She said the situation had placed considerable strain on her and hinted that she might seek a resolution through personal channels if it would help secure his release. Her remarks have sparked reactions across social platforms, with many calling for a calm approach until the full details are made public.

Actress Mary Njoku also shared a message directed at Regina. Her note encouraged women to support one another during difficult seasons and reminded the public that personal struggles often run deeper than what is visible.

Observers are now waiting for the next update from the police and any formal response from Senator Ned Nwoko, whose name has circulated in public conversation about the matter. Further reports will follow as more information becomes available.
