Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, on Sunday said that his successor, Senator Uba Sani, is not his friend.
El-Rufai, 65, who was instrumental to Sani’s emergence as Kaduna State governor in 2023, however, dispelled rumours of a rift between him and the governor.
“My biggest pride in life is that I have encouraged and elevated many people to greatness, some even greater than me, and I am very proud of it.
“But when a person derails, when he doesn’t do the right thing, because I contributed to getting him there, I am prohibited from commenting? Is that what the country has become?”
