REVEALED: Multi-million Naira Property Built By Nigeria's Attorney-General, Malami For 22-year-old Son Uncovered

 Attorney general of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami, built a multi million house in Kebbi state in the name of his 22-year-old son, Abirul-Rahman Malami has been uncovered.

 It was gathhered that the sprawling edifice is located in the choice neighbourhood of Gesse Phase II in Birnin-Kebbi, capital of Kebbi State. 

“The building is opposite street Safar conference hall, Gesse Phase ll, Kebbi state,” a source close to the minister  revealed.

    Abirul-Rahman who just got married is also known to drive around Birnin-Kebbi in multi-million naira luxury vehicles customised with different number plates. 

Malami, 53, a lawyer from Kebbi State who was hardly known before 2015 when he was appointed into the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, is today one of the richest men in Nigeria

A series of detailed investigations carried out by SaharaReporters in 2020 showed that the Nigerian Chief Law Officer had acquired several properties whose value runs into billions of naira since being appointed by Buhari.

For example, the AGF has an underground hotel in Sokoto, three houses at Peace Estate, Abuja, a brand new state-of-the-art school in Kebbi, two houses for his sons worth N100 million each, and a new hotel under construction in the Jabi area of Abuja.

Malami also bought a house in 2020 worth N150 million in the Gwarimpa area of Abuja.

A newly constructed school is located at the back of NITEL in Gesse Phase 1, Birnin-Kebbi, while a new house worth N600 million on Ahmadu Bello Way, Nasarawa GRA, Kano, are among properties acquired by Malami since he became a minister under President Buhari.

That is not all, Malami also built a N3 billion multipurpose event centre in Kebbi state named Azbir Arena for his son in Kebbi. 

This is apart from Rayhaan Hotel located on Zaria Road, opposite Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, which the AGF massively upgraded. 

Ever since a series of detailed reports exposing these illicit acquisitions, the online news medium has been a target for the AGF’s camp.

Apart from falsely claiming to have sued SaharaReporters over the expository reports he said had damaged his reputation before the world, Malami also issued a petition to the former Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, on the issue to arrest the Publisher of the online newspaper, Omoyele Sowore.

Despite the open display of unexplained wealth by the AGF and members of his family in recent times, President Buhari, who rode to power in 2015 on the back of a promise to crush corruption, especially in the government circle, has yet to offer any statement on the development. 

Observers say Buhari’s silence is an endorsement of the atrocities of one of his most trusted lieutenants, Malami.
