Breaking: Military Officer Opposing Wike Survives Assassination Attempt in Abuja
In a shocking turn of events, a Nigerian military officer identified as Lieutenant Yarima, who has reportedly been at odds with political heavyweight Nyesom Wike, narrowly escaped a suspected assassination attempt in Abuja.
According to reliable military intelligence, the incident took place on Sunday, November 16, around 6:30 p.m. , when Lt. Yarima noticed he was being followed by unknown individuals. The suspicious trail allegedly began from the NIPCO Filling Station
, located off the Line Expressway, and continued all the way to Gado Nasco Way —a distance indicating calculated pursuit.
A senior military source revealed that the officer, upon detecting he was under surveillance, swiftly initiated what has been described as a “strategic and tactical manoeuvre” to avoid confrontation or harm. The quick thinking and military training of Lt. Yarima were credited for helping him successfully elude the suspected assailants without injury or incident.
“The officer identified the surveillance and immediately took tactical steps to ensure his safety. His actions helped him evade a potentially deadly attack,” the source disclosed. “The case is currently under thorough investigation and is being treated with the utmost seriousness.”
Authorities have yet to release further details, as doing so could compromise ongoing investigations. However, security experts believe this incident may have wider implications, especially considering the officer’s known disagreement with powerful political interests.
This incident adds to growing concerns about the safety of outspoken security personnel and the rising wave of politically linked intimidation in the capital.
