“I Always Try Not To Betray The People’s Trust.‘I Didn’t Steal Money As Governor, I’m Ready To Swear With Quran” – El-Rufai Boast


Former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has again refuted claims of embezzling the state funds during his eight-year tenure.

Naija News recalls that the Kaduna State House of Assembly indicted El-Rufia’s administration for misappropriating over N423 billion.

The former governor and his allies have denied these allegations, claiming they are being witch-hunted by the Assembly and the state government.

While featuring on the Hausa program aired on Freedom Radio station in Kaduna on Tuesday morning, El-Rufai said he joined politics solely to serve the people, not to seek money or steal public funds.

He emphasized that he was content with what he had before becoming governor, yet was accused of financial misappropriation without any specific area.

El-Rufai stated that he was prepared to swear with the Quran whenever former state governors and current leaders swore that they never misappropriated public funds.

The ex-governor also noted that after his studies, he will return to politics by 2027 because there is no retirement in politics like government work, “We will return and continue with politics, God willing.”
