When you hear of my Death, please pray for me, don't post my pictures or our chats please.
May Allah (SWT) with his infinite mercy forgive all of us and make Jannatul Firdaous our final abode. AMEEN.
Don’t play politics with the El-Rufai mourning phase.
Many of these individuals were absent when Mallam was arrested, either for him or his family. They never voiced their support for Mallam or worked underground for his release. If this were not a political season, most of them would not be present.
Some are there for the cameras, and their presence will fade after the dust settles.
The loss of a parent and loved one is immeasurable.
Allow the family to mourn in peace.
Allah jikan Hajiya da wadanda suka rigamu gidan gaskiya.
INNALILLAHI WA INNAILAIHI RAJI’UN!
PUBLIC NOTICE OF LOSS AND TRIBUTE
It is with profound sorrow and total submission to the will of Almighty Allah that we announce the passing of Arc. Irfan Sunusi Gumbi, one of the founding members and a former Member of the Board of Trustees of the Society for Drug Abuse Enlightenment and Control (SODAEC). He passed away on 17th February, 2026, in Cairo, following an illness.
Though he transitioned from his formal role in 2017 to pursue other endeavors, Arc. Irfan never truly left SODAEC. His vision, sacrifices, counsel, and foundational contributions remain etched into the very fabric of our organization. The structure we stand on today bears the imprint of his commitment, intellect, and unwavering belief in a drug-free and enlightened society. His legacy is not in titles held, but in values instilled and systems built.
Arc. Irfan was more than a colleague; he was a builder of ideas, a voice of reason, and a quiet pillar of strength in our formative years. His dedication during SODAEC’s early days helped shape the mission that continues to guide us.
We extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to his beloved wife and their two children. May they find strength in the noble legacy he leaves behind and comfort in the knowledge that he lived a life of purpose and impact.
Our thoughts and prayers also go to his entire family, especially his dear mother. No grief compares to that of a mother losing her child. We pray that Almighty Allah grants her the fortitude to bear this painful loss and envelops the family in His mercy and peace.
“Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un” — To Allah we belong, and to Him we shall return.
May Allah forgive his shortcomings, reward his good deeds, expand his grave with light, and grant him Aljannatul Firdaus.
Arc. Irfan Sunusi Gumbi may have departed from this world, but his impact endures. His contributions will forever remain part of SODAEC’s story.
May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace.
HISTORIC COMMISSIONING OF THE FIRST EVER LNG/L-CNG HUB IN KATSINA STATE BY GREENVILLE LNG
On Thursday, the 12th of February 2026, I had the privilege of witnessing the commissioning of the first ever LNG/L-CNG Hub in Katsina State that’s designed to expand access to Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) in regions like ours without active pipeline connectivity. The hub forms part of @greenvillelng’s second-phase expansion and diversification strategy, aimed at deepening gas penetration across Nigeria in alignment with the Federal Government’s Presidential Decade of Gas Initiative.
The project supports the Administration of His Excellency @dikko_radda’s broader agenda on energy diversification, economic revitalisation, security enhancement, and sustainable development.
UNVEILING SODAEC’S 2026 STRATEGIC ROADMAP
SODAEC proudly unveils its 2026 Strategic Roadmap—a focused, evidence-driven plan to tackle the root causes of drug abuse and its links to crime, insecurity, and community instability.
From preventing first-time drug use, to rehabilitating vulnerable individuals, strengthening communities, driving regional security collaboration, and deploying data for smarter policy, our 2026 agenda is clear: protect lives, restore communities, and secure Nigeria’s future.
Together, we move from reaction to prevention, from fragmentation to coordination, and from guesswork to data-driven action.
#SODAEC2026 #DrugPrevention #CommunityResilience #DrugSecurityNexus #PublicHealth #NationalSecurity
Our 2026 prescription is non-negotiable:
• Dismantle drug-funded arms pipelines
• End “chemical recruitment” through Scientific DDR
• Ring-fence security funds for youth rehabilitation via the NWRTF
SODAEC’s position is clear:
Any summit that doesn’t prioritize cutting drug supply chains and dark liquidity is treating symptoms while the cancer spreads.
The missing link is the Drug-Insecurity Nexus.
Banditry survives on a chemical bloodline: narcotics that fuel recruitment, violence, and arms procurement.
Ignore this, and the crisis metastasizes.
For years, high-level meetings have been followed by military operations—yet insecurity persists.
Why? Nigeria has hit a kinetic ceiling.
Force alone cannot defeat a conflict powered by drugs and illicit finance.
A profound honor to have been received by His Highness, Khalifa Muhammadu Sanusi II. We discussed SODAEC’s Unified Security/DDR Framework for the North West. His Highness’s insight on the "Drug-Insecurity Nexus" as an economic drain is invaluable…

For years, policy responses treated drug abuse as a separate public health issue, and insecurity
as a separate policy challenge. This Summit challenges that siloed approach. We assert that drug trafficking is the leading source of untaxed, high-volume funding for violent…
