NIA: The Inevitable Return Of Ayodele As NIA DG & Sudden Resignation Of Rufai by Morbeta11(op): 11:10pm On Aug 24, 2024
NIA: THE INEVITABLE RETURN OF AMBASSADOR EKE AYODELE AS DG NIA & SUDDEN "RESIGNATION"AHMED RUFA'I By Mahdi Shehu


1. Ahmed Rufai from Katsina state resigned as DG NIA yesterday, a post he has been holding since April 2017. He was the most influential of all Buhari's appointees and the luckiest of all appointees.

2. His reported resignation today was short of FULL DISCLOSURE and deliberately underplayed for reasons below.

3. In April 2017, in a deliberately designed sting operation to create a vacuum by force and subterfuge at the NIA, initiated by Sabiu tunde and two other northern cabals, Magu, the then Efcc Chairman using an insider informant from NIA operations unit, was drafted to invade the lagos operational office of the NIA, Which he forcefully broke into and removed $43m and £34m.

4. $ 10M was allegedly reported to have been "stolen" out of the "recovery" when it was taken for custody at the CBN by an NIA accounts staff who was silently transfered out. Don't ask me if the $10m was returned.

5. Even before the report of the presidential investigation was submitted and in spite of the existing court case instituted by Ayodele Eke, Buhari was misled into appointing Ahmed Rufai as the New DG NIA. As a reward, Tunde Sabiu, who was never a member of the intelligence community, was rewarded with the post of Assistant Director at the NIA while still holding the post of PA to C in C and posted to the villa. To date, he is a staff of the NIA just to give him a soft landing.

6. Eke Ayodele, who was suspended in April 2017 by Buhari, pending the outcome of investigation, went to court to contest his indictment arising from Magu's raid.

7. In 2023, the court cleared Ambassador Eke Ayodele from any wrongdoing and ordered that he be reinstated back to his seat as DG NIA being a statutory tenure appointment with constitutional flavor

8 The court order came before the elections, and removing Rufai and reinstating Ayodele may be a spoiler for the APC in the North, particularly aware of the role expected to "be played" by Ahmed Rufai in the 2023 presidential election.

9. Even after "declared" winner, Tinubu " retained" Ahmed Rufai in " appreciation" to his role but behind the scene assuring Eke Ayodele of his plans to implement the court order that restored him to his seat.

10. As we await the formal return of Eke Ayodele as the DG NIA, we allow the public to make all the insinuations. rightly or wrongly , particularly on Ahmed Rufa's tenor, particularly as katsina state, his home state became decimated by bandits, kidnappers, and state treasury looters from 2015 to date.

11. The Sardaunan katsina can now return home after a " job welldone" and help to save his Emir, (who is undersiege from the young and delicate Turk), his benefactor, who took away the Sardauna title from Sadiq kaita, a full royal blooded young man and handed over to Ahmed Rufai on a " platter" of Gold.

12. Welcome back, Ambassador Eke Ayodele, and don't witch hunder anybody but rather return Good against the evil done to you. Because your return is not by your power but God's will. If you return evil for evil, your days will be counted.

A DAY IS COMING.

It seems his resignation was not for personal reasons after all! But why lie to us knowing fully well, as things always go in Nigeria, the truth almost always surfaces? This "intelligence" obviously no rate Nigerians at all. Nonsense! 🙄🙄

If indeed there is a pending court order that has not been vacated or appealed till date, then President Tinubu must obey such order and reinstate the wrongfully terminated DG.

All eyes on the judiciary no be for presidential election matters alone.

The judiciary has already delivered its verdict, so let the President implement it.

Besides the name is Ayodele Oke, not Eke.

Hmmmmmm.
It was obvious that there were some underlying factors to the sudden resignation of the DG. Now, we got a better insight.

I so hate the way those arseholes are quick to formulate lies with which to keep Nigerians blind to the situation. undecided

sad Now the real reason for the sudden resignation of the DG NIA is clear yet he was downplaying it for a non-existing family squabbles. The ijtrigues and intricacies of the desperate tussles in the corridor of power in Nigeria is not for the faint-hearted
Re: NIA: The Inevitable Return Of Ayodele As NIA DG & Sudden Resignation Of Rufai by Racoon(m): 4:20am On Aug 25, 2024
Ahmed Rufa - katsina state, his home state has became decimated by bandits, kidnappers, and state treasury looters from 2015 to date.
They don't give up easily despite when the situation back home is abysmal.

We remember this c9controversy back then. These useless leaders use all kind of tricks to distract us, and we fall always.


The way this Oke of NIA was in the news then, you'd think they have any real agenda for the people. Nothing!!!

The media would flog the issue, later it'd die down and we'll forget as usual. They're saying Oke is coming back.

Don't support any side when those in leadership position are fighting. They don't mean well for us.

Sacking and forcing incompetents to resign only to be replaced by other incompetents.

Continuing from were Buharia stopped.

From top to bottom, turning a bad situation into a rotten one.

Ayodele and Ahmed are in same WhatsApp group. Tinubu has nothing reasonable to offer this country.

Truth be told…this administration is still far better than what could have happened to all of us if OBI was declared winner
