A major political gathering took a dramatic turn when delegates from Jigawa State disrupted proceedings, igniting tensions at a high-level coalition meeting in Abuja. The event, hosted by the National Political Consultative Group (North) at the Abuja Continental Hotel, featured political heavyweights like Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and Rotimi Amaechi. The atmosphere shifted abruptly after Babachir Lawal, former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, introduced a delegate to speak on behalf of Jigawa — a move that triggered an angry protest from the state’s representatives, who felt sidelined.
