“We Live in Fear”: Lebanese Wife of AA Oil CEO Alhaji Aliyu Abubakar Appeals for Government Intervention

Mrs. Suheir Aliyu Abubakar, the Lebanese wife of prominent businessman and CEO of AA Oil, Alhaji Aliyu Abubakar, has issued a passionate appeal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the Ministry of Women Affairs, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, members of the National Assembly, and other well-meaning Nigerians to intervene in what she describes as a “worsening and traumatic” situation threatening her safety and that of her children.

According to Mrs. Abubakar, her marital troubles intensified after her husband issued multiple court summons containing conflicting claims regarding the status of their marriage. One summon reportedly indicated that he no longer wished to continue with the union and had accepted an abandonment dating back to 2017. Another summon dated November 14 allegedly stated that the marriage ended in 2018, urging the court to confirm the divorce and compelling her to vacate their residence.

She said these contradictory legal actions have left her confused and vulnerable, heightening her fears of being forcefully removed from her home without adequate protection for herself and her children.

Mrs. Abubakar accused her husband of subjecting her to prolonged emotional distress and neglect, noting that she has endured escalating threats that could leave her and her children homeless. She narrated how the situation further deteriorated when her husband allegedly threatened to evict them from the house, an experience she described as traumatic and deeply unsettling.

“I am living in fear. I don’t know what will happen next. I just want safety for myself and my children,” she pleaded.

Calling for immediate intervention, the Lebanese mother implored authorities, human rights advocates, and concerned Nigerians to help prevent what she believes is an attempt to wield power and influence to render her and her children destitute.

As the marital dispute deepens, Mrs. Abubakar says her greatest concern remains the uncertainty surrounding their welfare and the possibility of being left on the streets without shelter or protection.

The President of De Norsemen Kclub International (DNKI), Chief Oliver Patrick Ityohegh, has reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to humanitarian service, stressing the importance of supporting vulnerable people and improving community welfare beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day.

Ityohegh stated this during the organisation’s Cauldron Night and Award Presentation held to commemorate its 2026 Humanitarian Day celebration, theme: “Humanity First: Advancing Hope, Dignity and Community Well-being.” organised by the DNKI Abuja Chapter.

He emphasised that humanitarian service should be a continuous responsibility driven by compassion, solidarity and a commitment to making a meaningful difference in society.

According to him, DNKI’s humanitarian activities reflect its dedication to giving back to society and supporting people in need, while encouraging members to sustain initiatives that promote human dignity and community well-being.

He added that the organisation would continue to strengthen its humanitarian engagements through practical interventions aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable people and promoting community development.

Speaking at the event, the representative of the Abuja Chapter Chairman and Chairman of its Advisory Council, Prince Efiong Okpe, said the organisation’s humanitarian activities extended beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day on October 15.

Okpe explained that DNKI undertook several initiatives throughout the year, including blood donation exercises, visits to hospitals and correctional centres, as well as support for orphanages and other vulnerable groups.

According to him, the organisation also collaborated with humanitarian bodies in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to identify areas of need and provide assistance within its available resources.

He described Humanitarian Day as an opportunity for members to renew their commitment to service and demonstrate solidarity with people facing difficult circumstances.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Planning Committee and Coordinator of the DNKI Gwagwalada Zone, Mr Etudaiye Hamzat, disclosed that the chapter had provided financial assistance to some members to help pay their children’s school fees, alongside distributing bags of rice and other relief items to members experiencing hardship.

Hamzat explained that the interventions followed concerns over the difficulties some members faced in meeting their family responsibilities, particularly the rising cost of their children’s education.

He maintained that supporting members in need was consistent with the organisation’s humanitarian principles, adding that DNKI remained committed to extending assistance to non-members and vulnerable communities as part of its commitment to leading by example.

Looking ahead, Hamzat said the Abuja Chapter planned to expand its humanitarian outreach to remote communities within the FCT, with particular attention to orphanages, schools and widows facing difficulties in meeting their family responsibilities.

He also recalled previous interventions for internally displaced persons (IDPs), which included the distribution of food, clothing and educational materials, noting that the chapter intended to scale up such initiatives in the coming year.

The highlight of the event was the presentation of awards to outstanding members and distinguished non-members in recognition of their contributions to humanitarian service.
