Shehu Sani Warns Buhari Against El-Rufai, Says Governor’s ‘Loyalty’ For Political Relevance

The senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to be wary of Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.

Shehu sani, who made the statement while reacting to El-Rufai’s endorsement for re-election in 2019 by the All Progressives Congress in the state, said that the governor was parading himself around the president for political relevance, self-protection and preservation.

Recall that a few days ago, El-Rufai claimed that he fought former president Umaru Yar’Adua who ended up in the grave and the immediate past President, Goodluck Jonathan was voted out of power, for crossing his path.

Senator Sani, who had stayed away from the event which held at the Umaru Musa Yar’Adua Hall, Kaduna, said the endorsement was further to El-Rufai’s alleged leveraging on Buhari’s political capital for his selfish interest.

“The so called endorsement of Governor El-Rufai by Kaduna APC amounts to endorsement of toxic waste.

“El-Rufai simply gathered his employees, aides and hangers on to endorse him.”

Continuing, the senator said of El-Rufai: “He is a poisonous viper corrosive to the integrity and moral standing of the party in the state and the nation.

“El-Rufai name dropping and mobilisation for Buhari 2019 is self-serving. His loyalty to Buhari is for political relevance and his allegiance to Buhari is for self-protection and preservation.

“Now that President Buhari is back from health vacation and the chances of becoming a Vice President is zero, El-Rufai has taken up a new project for Buhari 2019.

“El-Rufai obsession with Buhari is not about Buhari but about himself. Buhari should protect his testicles from a man who always bend close to his knees.

“Those who endorsed El-Rufai are marketing a bottled fart. A man who boasts of sending Yar’adua to his grave should not be trusted by Buhari. The snake that killed the hunter can kill the charmer.”
