Nasir El-rufai attacks PDP for congratulating "false" Emir

APC frontman, Nasir El-rufai has taken to his FB page to attack the PDP for congratulating the "wrong" emir. According to him, Alh. Sanusi Ado Bayero. who was rumoured to be the new emir, has not yet been elected. Read his statement below...

The PDP out of fear and hatred of my brother SLS began circulating the falsehood that someone else had been appointed Emir of Kano.

Then they congratulated the Emir that had not been selected by the constituted authority. Earlier, they had enlisted several PDP sympathiser-traditional rulers to put pressure on Governor Kwankawaso to discourage him from selecting SLS, who was recommended on merit among the aspirants by the kingmakers.

May the Almighty Allah Guide Governor Kwankwaso in choosing a wise and honest leader that will build on the legacy of Late Ado Bayero. In my opinion, that person is my brother SLS. But that is my opinion only which I am entitled.


They have now withdrawn their false and contrived congratulations. PDP represents all that is evil and wrong about our nation. May Allah separate Nigeria from this evil, divisive and poverty-inducing party.
