WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has broken his silence on the ongoing investigation into his predecessor’s administration, Nasir El-Rufai. The Northern leader has dismissed claims of a vendetta. In a televised interview on Channels TV, Governor Sani emphasized his cordial relationship with El-Rufai, describing him as a “friend and brother.” Governor Sani acknowledged the efforts of all former governors of Kaduna State, including El-Rufai, stating that each had done their best to govern the state. He clarified that the investigation was initiated by the state House of Assembly, and he had not interfered. “The state government under my leadership has not interfered with the assembly’s investigation,” Governor Sani said. “I am focused on my job and delivering on my campaign promises to the people of Kaduna State.” The investigation into El-Rufai’s administration centres on allegations of a ₦432 billion fraud. The Kaduna State House of Assembly launched the probe, which many read as a silent battle between El-Rufai and his successor. El-Rufai’s relationship with the All Progressives Congress and President Bola Tinubu’s administration has been strained since he met with opposition leaders, including Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party.
