Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, has been conferred with the revered title of Sardauna Adamawa by His Royal Highness, Dr. Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Mustapha, the Lamido Adamawa.
This honour, one of the most prestigious in the Adamawa Emirate, comes as a recognition of Ribadu’s exceptional service to the nation and his enduring commitment to peace, unity, and security.
Gidado Mohammed Modibbo, a distinguished son of Adamawa and respected corporate leader, congratulated Ribadu on this historic milestone, describing the conferment as a “badge of honor for peace and unity.”
In his message, Modibbo highlighted Ribadu’s decades of service marked by courage, integrity, and dedication to public good. As the pioneer Chairman of Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ribadu led landmark reforms in the fight against corruption, earning international acclaim and setting new standards for accountability and transparency.
Today, as National Security Adviser, Ribadu continues to play a critical role in shaping strategies that strengthen Nigeria’s security architecture and foster stability across the country. His tireless efforts in building bridges, promoting national cohesion, and confronting security challenges with wisdom and resolve have distinguished him as a statesman of rare quality.
Modibbo commended these achievements, noting: “Your strides in fostering peace and unity are truly commendable. You have carried the weight of responsibility with humility and vision, and this recognition is both a testament to your past accomplishments and a call to continue in service to our people and our nation.”
He further prayed that Ribadu’s tenure as Sardauna Adamawa would be long and fruitful, filled with Allah’s blessings, guidance, and strength.
The conferment of this title not only honors Ribadu’s legacy but also symbolizes the confidence of the Adamawa Emirate in his ability to champion values of justice, integrity, and unity. It is a moment of pride not only for Adamawa but for Nigeria as a whole.
