SECURITY OPERATIVES STORM MALAMI’S ABUJA RESIDENCE HOURS AFTER ATIKU’S VISIT
Security operatives on Monday stormed the Abuja residence of former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, in a move that has sparked widespread reactions.
The incident occurred just hours after former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar paid him a visit at his residence following his recent release from detention.
Malami had earlier been held over alleged money laundering but was granted bail and had begun receiving political associates and well-wishers at his Abuja home.However, in a sudden turn of events, security operatives arrived at the residence shortly after Atiku’s departure.
A video from the scene shows Malami—still dressed in the same outfit he wore during the visit—challenging the officers and demanding to see a valid court order.“Where’s the court order you have to mark my property? Are you trying to embarrass me or what?” he was heard saying.As of the time of this report, it remains unclear which agency carried out the operation or whether any official warrant was presented.
The development has raised questions about the circumstances surrounding the raid and its timing, especially following the high-profile visit.More details are expected as the situation unfolds.
