El-Rufai Claims Current Admin Uses Successor Against Him

Nasir El-Rufai, the former governor of Kaduna State, has publicly accused the current administration of leveraging his successor as an enabler to undermine his success. He alleged that there is a determined effort to bring down anyone not aligned with the current government.

This accusation arose following an incident on Thursday, where the Department of State Services (DSS) attempted to arrest him. This development has sparked widespread debate across various sectors of the country, particularly regarding the political dynamics at play.

El-Rufai's claims suggest a significant political struggle, especially in light of the failed attempts to discredit him since June 2023. His statements highlight the ongoing tensions and conflicts within Nigeria's political landscape, emphasizing the challenges faced by former officials in the current political climate.
