Atiku Abubakar Visits El-Rufai After Arrest Attempt

Atiku Abubakar, the former Vice President of Nigeria, paid a solidarity visit to Nasir El-Rufai, the former Governor of Kaduna State and a prominent member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), on Thursday. This visit followed an unsuccessful attempt by security operatives to arrest El-Rufai at the airport upon his arrival in Nigeria from Cairo, Egypt.

Atiku shared a video of the visit on his Facebook page, where he criticized government agencies for allegedly trying to disorganize the ADC. He emphasized his commitment to fighting for a better Nigeria, particularly in light of recent criticisms directed at the current administration.

The incident has raised alarms regarding the government's plans to target opposition leaders, highlighting ongoing tensions between the ruling party and opposition figures.
