APC governorship candidate in Gombe State, Dr. Jamilu Isyaku Gwamna, petitions Nigeria’s Inspector-General of Police (IGP) over allegations of a coordinated campaign of online attacks. Across reports, he says the campaign includes cyberbullying, criminal defamation, and the spread of fake news, which he claims is intended to harm his reputation ahead of the 2027 governorship election. The petition is said to be supported by information from sources familiar with the submission, which also indicates that Gwamna seeks an INTERPOL probe in addition to police investigation. The reports do not provide details of specific posts or accounts, or name alleged perpetrators. They also do not confirm whether any investigation has been launched or whether authorities have responded publicly. The matter is presented as a formal complaint by the candidate, focusing on alleged online conduct that he attributes to a coordinated effort. The petition’s stated aim is to prompt law-enforcement action to address what he describes as misinformation and defamatory content circulated against him.
