In a post on his verified Facebook page on Tuesday morning, El-Rufai shared a cryptic quote from Sherlock Holmesbefore launching into his criticism of Governor Uba Sani. His reaction came after the governor’s recent television interview, in which he praised Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration and dismissed the existence of a coalition working to unseat the government in the 2027 general election.
Nasir El-Rufai alleged that Senator Uba Sani’s public statements were influenced by the Federal Government’s selective disbursement of over N150 billion in reimbursements, interventions, and grants to Kaduna State in the last 18 months.
He wrote: “Every day I see this governor embarrassingly and sycophantically rambling, I used to wonder why? However, confirming that Federal Government ‘reimbursements, interventions, and grants’ in excess of N150bn have been given selectively to Kaduna by Tinubu in the last 18 months, now explains everything,” using the hashtag #ConcernedKadunaCitizen.
He further remarked, “By all means, defend Asiwaju for the conditional cash transfer. Asiwaju has earned it, coming from you. The people of Kaduna State will judge at the right time and place. Have a nice day.”
The public rift between the two political figures signals growing tensions within Kaduna’s political landscape and could have implications for future elections that is coming.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
