In a politically charged meeting that underscores the growing momentum around Dr. Abubakar Malami, SAN, a powerful delegation comprising Hon. B/Tudu, Alhaji Ibrahim Manzo, and the revered Marafan Zuru paid a courtesy visit to the former Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice in his Abuja office.
Though Dr. Malami has not declared interest in contesting for any elective office, the delegation made it clear that they—alongside many other political stakeholders—are solidly behind him should he choose to return to active politics. The visit was part of a broader wave of calls from friends, associates, and political groups across Nigeria urging Malami to contest for either the Kebbi State governorship or a national position in 2027.
Speaking during the visit, Hon. B/Tudu hailed Malami as a symbol of integrity and competence whose leadership is urgently needed in the current political landscape. Alhaji Ibrahim Manzo added that Malami’s track record as a lawyer, administrator, and patriot places him in a strategic position to offer decisive leadership at a time the country yearns for stability and progress.
Marafan Zuru, delivering his remarks with traditional gravitas, stressed that Malami's connection to the grassroots, especially across the North, remains unmatched. He described the former minister as “a bridge between the old and new order of Nigerian politics.”
Although Malami remained reserved and refrained from making any commitment, his composed demeanor and the growing list of visitors suggest that the political class is watching closely—and waiting. Observers believe that any declaration from him could dramatically shift political alignments and energize supporters across party lines.
With mounting endorsements and increased calls from various quarters, one thing is becoming clear: when Malami sneezes, Nigeria listens—and often catches a political cold.
