El-Rufai's Son Thanks Peter Obi for Support During Detention
Mohammed Bello El-Rufai, son of former Kaduna governor Nasir El-Rufai, publicly thanked NDC presidential candidate Peter Obi for his ongoing concern regarding his father's detention. Bello acknowledged that Obi, along with other prominent politicians such as former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, Rotimi Amaechi, and Rabiu Kwankwaso, reached out to inquire about his father.
He specifically appreciated Obi's consistent calls, stating it served as a lesson for him, given his prior criticisms of Obi. Bello mentioned that his father is utilizing his time in detention to read, study the Quran, and reflect on his experiences.
Nasir El-Rufai has been in the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) since February 18, following investigations by anti-corruption authorities. The ICPC confirmed his detention is linked to ongoing investigations, and he is facing legal proceedings related to allegations from both the ICPC and the Department of State Services (DSS).
