Former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai has petitioned the Police Service Commission, PSC, accusing senior officers of the Kaduna State Police Command of gross misconduct.
In a letter dated September 8, 2025, the former governor
accused the Commissioner of Police in Kaduna of abusing his office.
El-Rufai urged the PSC to immediately launch an impartial
investigation into what he described as “unlawful and unconstitutional conduct”
by authorities of the Command.
“I am writing as a citizen of Nigeria and former governor of
Kaduna State to formally lodge this complaint and demand an immediate,
impartial, and exhaustive investigation into the unlawful and unconstitutional
conduct of the Commissioner of Police and some officers of the Kaduna State
Police Command,” parts of the petition read.
There has been a face-off between El-Rufai and the Kaduna
State Police Command.
On August 30, 2025, the former governor and some other
opposition politicians were attacked by suspected political thugs during a
meeting in Kaduna.
El-Rufai subsequently accused the police of collusion with
the thugs, saying officers were watching while they were being attacked.
Reports emerged last week, indicating that the Command has
invited El-Rufai, along with six senior members of the African Democratic
Congress, ADC, for questioning over allegations relating to criminal
conspiracy, incitement of public disturbance, mischief and causing grievous
hurt.
