Sowore Accuses Tinubu Regime of Launching Defamatory Campaign
Omoyele Sowore, the founder of SaharaReporters, has accused the Bola Tinubu administration of orchestrating a new smear campaign aimed at discrediting him and his media platform.
In a statement, Sowore claimed that a suspicious memo, allegedly from the Secretary of Zamfara State government, has been circulating, requesting large sums of money for prominent bandits and media outlets.
While the authenticity of the memo remains in question, Sowore insists its purpose is clear: to undermine the credibility of SaharaReporters, a platform known for its relentless criticism of corruption and government misconduct.
Sowore also emphasized that SaharaReporters remains independent by refusing government patronage or engaging with Nigerian government officials, distancing itself from the state house-based correspondent model.
He noted that the memo falsely implicated him as a beneficiary in the alleged scheme, describing the move as an attempt to blackmail him and the media outlet.
He reassured the public that these allegations are baseless and reflect the desperation of those behind the campaign, stating that this attempt, like others before it, will not succeed.

Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has spoken on the allegation that terrorism and the increase in insecurity are linked to his administration in the state.
The governor then said “This is a country where when you work, you become a villain. I have kept quiet for too long for peace and security. But I am not a coward. I will not join them. I refuse to join their party,” he stated.
“We have built our health system, primary education, and reduced out-of-school children. We have been awarded three times by the federal government for development and good governance. And they are accusing us? What kind of paradox is this?”

First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has shared that she has forgiven those who betrayed her husband during the 2023 general elections.
She revealed this as she marked a new age, reflecting on what the future holds. She emphasized that she holds no grudge against anyone.
“I do not have anything against anyone. The question is how I stopped feeling the betrayal? I knew the grace factor was evident, and the Holy Spirit continually comforted me. I chose never to avenge myself, understanding that it is God’s prerogative. Mine is to thank Him for fighting for us. If God decides to fight your battles and you have won, is there anything else that God missed and you wanted to fix? Nothing. So, let it go.”
