Trump issues pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer after insider trading conviction    President Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer, who served nearly two years in prison after being convicted of insider trading tied to post-congressional consulting work. Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months in prison for illegal stock trades made while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit more than $350,000 in ill-gotten gains and pay a $10,000 fine. He was released from custody in 2025 after his conviction was upheld, with the Supreme Court declining to take up his appeal earlier this year. In issuing the pardon, Trump described Buyer’s service as a judge advocate general in the U.S. Army and his time in Congress as “distinguished and highly productive.” The pardon, dated Thursday and released by the White House on Friday, grants Buyer “a full, complete, and unconditional pardon.” Buyer has maint...

 Trending bandits video: Zamfara group warns govt officials over Bello Turji’s claims


The Zamfara Conscience Movement (ZCM) has warned that there must not be an apparent close relationship between the government officials and notorious bandits and criminal gangs operating in the state.

The group noted that these bandits and criminals have devastated the state and neighboring areas in the North-West region.

This was following the emergence of a video clip featuring Bello Turji, a prominent bandit leader.

In the clip, Turji openly criticised the Minister of State for Defence Bello Matawalle.

ZCM said it finds it highly improbable that such bold statements could have been made without governmental support.

In a statement signed by ZCM Chairman Sahabi Lawali, the movement highlighted a prior video showing hooded armed bandits confessing to having ties with government officials.

“These disturbing revelations, coupled with Turji’s audacious declarations, suggest a worrying trend of collusion between the current administration and criminal groups,” the group said.

“This tactic undermines the rule of law, erodes the ethical foundations of our political process, and jeopardizes the safety and well-being of our citizens.”

Lawali said it is no wonder that the security situation in Zamfara State has significantly deteriorated.

“The lack of action from Governor Lawal in addressing these frequent invasions is disappointing.

“It is time for Governor Lawal to shift his attention from political squabbles to the pressing issue of security in the state.

“Cooperating with the federal government’s effort in addressing the root causes of these attacks and implementing effective measures to prevent future invasions should be the main focus of the government,” Lawali said.
