Osuntokun Explains El-Rufai's Bitterness Towards Ribadu

Akin Osuntokun, the former director of the Labour Party presidential campaign council, revealed in an interview on Arise Television that former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai is bitter due to political dynamics involving Nuhu Ribadu, the National Security Adviser (NSA). Osuntokun referenced a 2007 public opinion survey that favored Ribadu, suggesting that El-Rufai's resentment stems from political rivalry.

He accused El-Rufai of making allegations against Ribadu, including claims regarding the procurement of thallium sulfate by the Department of State Services (DSS), which Osuntokun described as a reaction to the ongoing political tension. The discussion highlighted the bad blood between Ribadu and El-Rufai, particularly as they navigate the political landscape under President Bola Tinubu's administration.
