Supporters of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate,
Mr Peter Obi, have accused the Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai,
of playing bitter politics.
The supporters said el-Rufai had displayed intolerance by
lying against Obi, claiming that he was put on house arrest by in 2013 when he
visited Anambra for election duty.
The group, in a press conference addressed by its leaders,
Barrister Tony Chukwuelue, Mike Okaka, Johnny Obika, and Shehu Alhassan, called
on President Muhammadu Buhari to caution him.
“el-Rufai has unsuccessfully tried severally to smear Obi
with his numerous delusional fabrications to torpedo the OBIdient ship which is
cruising to Aso Rock.
“First el-Rufai denied Obi’s supporters the use of public
facilities for their one million man march, then his lies that he was prevented
from going out of his hotel by Peter Obi in 2013.
“We wonder if el-Rufai knows that it is the Commissioner of
Police that is responsible for issuance of arrest and detention orders and not
a Governor.”
The group lamented that even with a video clip of el-Rufai
personally acknowledging that the security operatives he had encountered were
detailed from Abuja headquarters, he has continued to spread falsehood against
Obi.
“For those who know el-Rufai, he is one restless sadist and
serial betrayer occupying political space in Nigeria.
“He has since betrayed Atiku Abubakar who brought him to
political consciousness. A former president of Nigeria who also appointed
el-Rufai into his cabinet also recorded him as a serial liar and an
inconsistent person. He also wants to betray Buhari, the man who made his
occupation of the Kaduna Government House possible.”
The group, Great Nigeria 4 Obi-Datti (GN4ObiDatti),
described el-Rufai’s performance in Kaduna as very abysmal, saying that he has
watched over a state that is now impossible to travel by road, rail or air.
“In a civilised nation, el-Rufai would have voluntarily tendered a letter of resignation of office as Governor of Kaduna State, having presided over the most unsafe state, where one cannot travel by road, by train or by air.”
