Popular Nigerian businessman, Isaac Fayose, has claimed that the former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, will soon be charged for alleged N2.3 billion corruption.
Recall that operatives of the Department of
State Services, DSS, attempted to arrest the former governor at the Nnamdi
Azikwe International Airport, Abuja, on Thursday.
In an interview with BBC Pidgin, El-Rufai, who spoke on the
DSS operation, alleged that the secret police was contracted by the Independent
Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC to get him
arrested.
The attempted arrest has continued to trigger reactions from
concerned citizens, especially opposition figures, who are claiming that the
President Bola Tinubu-led government is persecuting those opposing his
administration.
In his reaction, Isaac Fayose, an internet personality
wondered why the APC-led government is hellbent on fighting opposition figures.
In a video clip on his X account, Fayose alleged that those
who refused to align with the administration are being attacked while those in
the government are seen as saints.
He said, “In Nigeria, when you are in opposition, you are
corrupt but when you are in APC, you are a saint.
“If you doubt me, think about this. El-Rufai quit the party
for opposition and now, they are about to charge him N2.3 billion for
corruption.
“Malami left and he was charged for corruption and now
illegal arms dealing. Kwankwaso said he was not going to join them and now he
is tagged as a bandit but Wike that has everything including opening a radio
station and campaign office for Tinubu, he is a saint”.
