Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has alleged that the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, is positioning himself to contest the presidency in 2031.
Amaechi also claimed that Ribadu is working to secure victory for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

He made the remarks during a phone-in programme on Eagles Radio, dismissing claims that former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, hacked Ribadu’s phone.
“I doubt that El-Rufai said he hacked NSA Nuhu Ribadu’s phone. He doesn’t have the capacity to do so. It’s the NSA’s office that is listening to our calls,” Amaechi said.
He further alleged that Ribadu is making strategic political moves ahead of future elections.

“Ribadu is busy arresting everybody. He’s planning double elections. He’s planning for himself in 2031 and also planning for Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election,” he stated.
Amaechi accused the NSA of interfering in opposition politics, particularly within the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
“All he’s doing is setting up parties to fight the ADC. He has his own fake ADC. Just go to court; he has so many ADC cases in court with small boys he has bought cars for,” he alleged.
He added, “The man needs to rest. If he thinks there won’t be proper elections in 2027, he’s wasting his time. He should prepare for his security job.”
The allegations have not been officially responded to by Ribadu or the Presidency as of press time.
