‘You’re backing Tinubu for personal gains’ — El-Rufai slams Kaduna Gov Sani

The immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai,
has criticised his successor, Governor Uba Sani, for supporting President Bola
Tinubu, alleging that it is for personal gain.

 

In a post on X, El-Rufai claimed that Sani’s unwavering
support for Tinubu was linked to over N150 billion in federal reimbursements
received by Kaduna State in the past 18 months.

 

“Every day I see this governor embarrassingly and
sycophantically rambling, I used to wonder why. However, confirming that
Federal Government ‘reimbursements, interventions, and grants’ in excess of
N150bn have been given selectively to Kaduna by Tinubu in the last 18 months
now explains everything.

 

“By all means, defend Asiwaju for the conditional cash
transfer. Asiwaju has earned it, coming from you. The people of Kaduna State
will judge at the right time and place. Have a nice day,” El-Rufai wrote.

 

The former governor’s criticism comes in the wake of Sani’s
remarks during a news interview on Monday, where he expressed surprise at the
growing criticism of Tinubu’s administration from some founding members of the
All Progressives Congress.

 

El-Rufai has recently become a frequent critic of President
Bola Tinubu’s administration.

 

The former Kaduna governor failed to make President Tinubu’s
cabinet in 2023 after the Senate refused to clear him, unlike other nominees
forwarded to the National Assembly.
