The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has concluded plans to arraign former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, before both federal and state high courts over a raft of corruption-related charges.

According to a statement issued on Monday by the Commission’s spokesperson, John Okor Odey, El-Rufai will be arraigned alongside one Joel Adoga at the Federal High Court sitting in Kaduna on Tuesday, March 24, 2026.

The case, marked FHC/KD/73/2026, borders on allegations including conversion and possession of public property as well as money laundering.

In a related development, the anti-graft agency disclosed that a separate charge has also been filed against El-Rufai and another defendant, Amadu Sule, before a Kaduna State High Court.

The state-level suit, with charge number KDH/KAD/ICPC/01/26, contains allegations ranging from abuse of office and fraud to intent to commit fraud and conferring undue advantage.

The Commission noted that both charges were filed on March 18, 2026, adding that the date for arraignment in the state high court would be communicated in due course.

ICPC further confirmed that El-Rufai has been duly served with the charges.

Reaffirming its stance, the Commission emphasized its commitment to due process and adherence to the rule of law in the prosecution of the cases.

  • Jilli Airstrike: Supporters Of Terrorists Will Be Treated As Bandits, Defence Minister Warns Defence Minister Christopher Musa has warned that supporters of terrorists would be treated as criminals. He said this on Monday as he reacted to the airstrike carried out by the Nigerian Air Force airstrike in Jilli, Borno State, over the weekend. Speaking after an expanded security meeting in Kaduna with the state governor and heads of security agencies, Musa said the operation sends a clear message to those collaborating with terrorist groups. He stressed that anyone found supporting insurgents would face the same consequences as the perpetrators. “A friend of a thief is a thief,” he said, warning civilians against associating with or providing any form of assistance to terrorists. Musa urged residents to steer clear of areas known to be used by insurgents, noting that proximity or collaboration could have grave consequences. The airstrike, carried out near the village of Jilli in Gubio Local Government Area, targeted what the military described as an ISWAP enclave and logistics hub. According to the Nigerian Air Force, the operation was intelligence-driven and aimed at neutralising terror elements and destroying their equipment. However, reports have emerged alleging that the strike may have affected a weekly market in the area, with civilians, including cross-border traders, reportedly among casualties. Musa, however, maintained that the strike should serve as a strong warning to those aiding insurgent activities, reaffirming the military’s resolve to intensify operations against terrorist networks. Air Component of Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI, conducted a precision air strike on a known terrorist enclave and logistics hub located near the abandoned village of Jilli in Gubio Local Government Area of Borno State. Giving an update on the airstrike, the Nigerian Army in a post on its official X handle said, “The successful strike, executed on 11 April 2026, followed sustained intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance missions over the Bindul–Jilli axis, an area long identified as a major terrorist movement corridor and convergence point for Islamic State West Africa Province terrorists and their collaborators.”
