OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON THE MALICIOUS DEFAMATION CAMPAIGN AGAINST ALHAJI AWA IBRAHEEM FCA (BRIMO)
Date: Thursday 27th November 2025
The Offa Youth Impact Initiative (OYII) issues this official public statement in response to the malicious, unfounded, and deliberately orchestrated smear campaign being circulated by a certain self-acclaimed “Islamic cleric,” whose recent defamatory broadcast targets one of Offa’s most distinguished sons, Alhaji AWA Ibraheem FCA (Brimo).
For clarity and the avoidance of doubt:
This organization will not allow the reputation of a man who has served Offa, Kwara State, and Nigeria at large with unparalleled distinction to be dragged into the mud by individuals driven by vendetta, envy, manipulation, and agenda-sponsored propaganda. The said video is not an act of religious counsel; it is a coordinated assault designed to tarnish the image of a patriotic citizen whose contributions tower above the personal achievements of those attacking him.
The cleric’s allegations are false.
His claims are malicious.
His intentions are dangerous.
And his sponsors—wherever they are hiding—should know that Offa will not be their playground.
Alhaji AWA Ibraheem FCA is a national asset and one of the most consistent private contributors to educational advancement, Islamic scholarship, youth empowerment, community development, and philanthropic initiatives across Nigeria.
His decades-long record includes the establishment and funding of educational institutions, scholarships, Arabic learning centers, mosques, youth initiatives, community endowments, and public-benefit projects nationwide.
He is not a politician.
He is not an extremist.
He is not aligned with any anti-social or destabilizing group.
The Offa Youth Impact Initiative finds it both laughable and insulting that anyone would insinuate that a man whose life work revolves around education, peace, and humanitarian service would sponsor the very elements that destroy society. Such claims are not just irresponsible — they are an assault on truth and a direct provocation to the entire Offa community.
This attack is not a religious argument.
It is not constructive criticism.
It is an orchestrated attempt to smear Offa by destroying the credibility of one of its finest ambassadors.
The Offa Youth Impact Initiative therefore issues the following five mandatory and non-negotiable demands:
1. OFFA TRADITIONAL AND CIVIC LEADERSHIP MUST ISSUE IMMEDIATE PUBLIC STATEMENTS
Kabiyesi, Olofa-in-Council, and the Offa Descendants Union (ODU) must jointly release firm, clear, and unambiguous public statements denouncing the defamatory broadcast and reaffirming the impeccable character and public service record of Alhaji AWA Ibraheem FCA.
2. CRIMINAL COMPLAINTS MUST BE FILED WITH BOTH THE IGP AND DSS
OYII demands the immediate submission of a formal petition to the Inspector General of Police, as well as a parallel petition to the DSS, requesting full investigation into the cleric, his motives, his sponsors, and any organized network behind this malicious hate campaign.
3. THE CLERIC MUST BE SUMMONED AND INTERROGATED BY SECURITY AGENCIES
The individual responsible for the defamatory broadcast must be compelled to present evidence for his allegations. Failure to provide verifiable proof should result in lawful consequences for incitement, hate speech, public disturbance, and defamation.
4. THE DEFAMATORY VIDEO AND ALL RELATED CONTENT MUST BE TAKEN DOWN IMMEDIATELY
All versions of the offensive broadcast circulating on social media, WhatsApp groups, and digital platforms must be reported, flagged, and removed without delay to prevent further misinformation and community agitation.
5. THE GLOBAL OFFA COMMUNITY MUST RALLY PUBLICLY IN DEFENSE OF AWA IBRAHEEM FCA
All Offa citizens, organizations, associations, and diaspora networks must unite in issuing statements, counter-narratives, and public affirmations of AWA Ibraheem’s legacy, contributions, and exemplary service to the nation.
These are not suggestions.
These are not appeals.
These are mandatory institutional actions expected from every responsible authority committed to justice, peace, and community integrity.
The Offa Youth Impact Initiative emphasizes that:
An attack on AWA Ibraheem FCA is an attack on Offa’s identity, dignity, and collective reputation.
This organization will not tolerate targeted character assassination disguised as religious commentary or community criticism.
Let it be known:
Offa remembers its benefactors.
Offa protects its own.
Offa does not bend to cheap propaganda.
Offa stands united against injustice.
This statement serves as both a defense of truth and a warning to those attempting to destabilize our community:
Offa will not be silent.
Offa will not be intimidated.
Offa will not allow anyone — cleric or otherwise — to malign its patriots.
Signed,
Prince Salako Olamilekan Lukman
Director, Offa Youth Impact Initiative (OYII)
For the Advancement, Protection, and Integrity of Offa and its People.
