Nigeria’s Police Force says it has begun investigations into alleged inciting remarks linked to the political statements of three public figures: Sainna Buba, commissioner for Youth and Sports Development in Borno State; Senator Francis Fadahunsi of Osun East; and Danjuma Shekwolo, chairman of Kuje Area Council in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Police headquarters says the probe follows complaints over their statements, which are described by outlets as involving “inciting” language and, in one report, comments connected to the 2027 election cycle. The police confirm that the matter is under investigation, though details of any specific allegations, timing of the remarks, or possible charges are not provided in the reports.
Across the sources, the core point is consistent: the Nigeria Police Force is conducting inquiries into the three individuals’ alleged statements, with one outlet specifically referencing the 2027-related context while the other describes the remarks more generally as “inciting.”
