In the murky theatre of Nigerian politics where loyalty is traded like currency and betrayal has become the language of survival, one man has stood unwavering, a lone sentinel of fidelity — Dr. Sule-Iko Sadeeq S. Sami, the unshakable musketeer of Abubakar Malami, SAN.
While many who once drank from Malami’s political wellspring have shamelessly switched allegiances — biting the very hand that lifted them from obscurity — Dr. Sule-Iko remains an unbending pillar in a storm of treachery. At a time when betrayal has become fashionable and cowardice is cloaked in political pragmatism, Sule-Iko is a rare breed. He does not blink. He does not falter. He does not run.
Those who conspire against the former Attorney General of the Federation know this all too well — Sule-Iko is not just a loyalist; he is a warrior with an unshakable moral compass, a lion amidst hyenas, standing tall where others crawl.
Enemies of Malami hate Sule-Iko with the same venom they reserve for the man himself. In fact, they fear Sule-Iko’s voice more than they fear their own shadows. For wherever there is a whisper of conspiracy, Sule-Iko is there — disrupting their plots, exposing their hypocrisies, and defending Malami’s legacy with a fire that refuses to die.
Let it be known: Dr. Sule-Iko is not a political errand boy — he is a soldier of conviction, a scholar with spine, a strategist who knows that loyalty is not declared in comfort but proven in conflict. When others recoiled at the slightest heat, he stepped forward. When the wolves gathered, he did not run — he roared.
Malami’s journey has been riddled with ambushes from those who once called him brother. Some whom he raised, clothed, and positioned turned around to cast stones in public while smiling in private. But in the midst of such betrayal, Sule-Iko remained the sword and shield, a constant presence, unbought and unbroken.
In every meeting, on every platform, and in every battle of narratives, he has been relentless in reminding all that loyalty is not just a virtue — it is a duty. A duty to the truth. A duty to justice. A duty to a man whose only crime, to some, is being too powerful to control and too principled to corrupt.
It is not Sule-Iko who should be afraid. It is those who betrayed Malami that must tremble — not at Sule-Iko's vengeance, but at the weight of their own treachery. For men like Sule-Iko do not operate with bitterness; they operate with the power of truth and the dignity of unwavering loyalty.
History will remember many names, but only few will be remembered for standing tall when the world expected them to kneel.
Dr. Sule-Iko Sadeeq S. Sami is one of those few. The musketeer who never dropped his sword. The fearless man behind enemy lines who turned fear into fire and loyalty into legacy.
Let the betrayers read this and weep.
Let the faithful take heart.
