Former FCT minister and Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has been accused of plotting to remove President Muhammadu Buhari.
In an explosive interview in the March edition of The Interview magazine, Nigerian Senator, author and a renown human rights activist, Shehu Sani, has revealed that Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, is already 'thinking of removing President Muhammadu Buhari.'
The Senator who represents Kaduna Central in the 8th Senate, said, "It would be counter-productive for the Governor to start thinking of evicting Buhari in 2019 to be the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. El-Rufai should do his job and stop putting his eyes on the Presidency."
The All Progressives Congress (APC) senator who is in the same ruling party with the Governor, has been at odds with the former FCT minister for undisclosed political reasons, leading to Sani’s suspension by the state branch of the party.
Sani accused El-Rufai of ruling like 'an emperor,' promising to 'give him war or peace,' whichever he chooses.
Former military governor of Kaduna State, Dangiwa Umar, a retired colonel, who was also featured in the magazine's new edition, gave his first major interview in 23 years in which he laid in on Governor Adams Oshiomohle; and Peoples Democratic Party chieftains, Edwin Clark and Tony Anenih, calling them 'traitors.'
Responding to a question on the fortunes of former President Goodluck Jonathan after he was defeated in March, Umar said, "I compare them (Oshiomohle and co) to insects that cling to flowers. They are attracted by the nectar rather than by the beauty of the flower.
"Governor Adams Oshiomohle, who generously praised Jonathan as a true democrat, suddenly turned into his most virulent critic."
He disclosed that during Jonathan’s testy days as acting President, he advised him to sack his service chiefs, but that the former president was too confused and agitated to act.
"He complained that the NSA had informed him that the service chiefs were disgruntled with the way the sick and bedridden Umaru Yar’Adua was being treated and that he, the acting President, was most disloyal."
