‘I could be arrested at any moment’, says El-Rufai
Former Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has warned that he could be arrested at any moment by the APC-led Federal Government.
El-Rufai, now a key figure in the opposition African Democratic Congress (ADC), made the claim in an interview with BBC Hausa on Wednesday.
He also alleged that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is pressuring politicians to either join the party or stay loyal to it.
The former governor, who has in recent months intensified his criticism of President Bola Tinubu’s administration and the APC — the platform under which he governed Kaduna State for eight years — said some of his associates have already been detained.
“Four people we worked with in Kaduna have been arrested; so it’s only a matter of time before they come for me too,” he stated.
El-Rufai’s remarks come against the backdrop of the arrest and ongoing trial of former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.
