Opinion: Questions Over El-Rufai’s Kaduna Record and Current Political Troubles

This opinion piece criticises former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai over his record in office, particularly insecurity, alleged sectarian governance and the treatment of Southern Kaduna communities. It also revisits past controversies involving his comments on godfatherism, election observers and negotiations with armed groups. Several of the allegations are serious and should be supported with credible, verifiable evidence. The writer questions whether El-Rufai’s political alliance with President Bola Tinubu has weakened, citing claims about investigations, detention and bail conditions. Readers should independently verify these claims, as the accompanying graphic and some assertions may be misleading or unsubstantiated.
