@NigAffairs @woye1 This guy forgets that there was a tape he was running down Buhari about him being incompetent. Desperado

@abdullahayofel The first spoke for about two minutes going around without really saying anything. The third guy isn't living on earth. To still be talking about energy subsidy at this time tells you he's lost.

Obi can take it from where he stopped.

Wole Soyinka was protesting when fuel was ₦65, but now that fuel is ₦1,400, he is entering okada. What happened to protesting?

@bioland2 @AhmadSafanaa Why are you wasting your time trying to wake up a man pretending to be asleep? Ley him be.

@AhmadSafanaa He practically confessed on national TV, and confirmed to the whole world that he knew it was a crime.
At what point will it start becoming a crime?

@n6oflife6 Since when did the NDC become a leading political party? Tell me something I don't know.

@KenWiwa4 @ADCVanguard_ Keep deceiving yourself. If you are in anyway objective you won't be spewing this garbage. Is it a matter of North versus South? Read the charges and see where Tinubu is playing any role.
English

@ADCVanguard_ The mistake the north made was allowing Tinubu become president when most of the south voted against him.
Tinubu doesn’t intend to leave power. He never left power in Lagos. He will not leave power in Nigeria. As long as he is alive, he will be president,for as long as it takes.

This El-Rufai situation is bigger than one man. It is a lesson on power, pride, justice, and the dangerous illusion that authority lasts forever.
People in power often forget that power is temporary. They sit in office, command security agencies, influence institutions, intimidate opponents, ignore court orders, and treat criticism like rebellion. In that moment, they feel untouchable. But democracy has one quiet weapon: time.
Today’s governor becomes tomorrow’s private citizen. Today’s president becomes tomorrow’s former president. Today’s untouchable becomes tomorrow’s defendant. That is why power must be handled with discipline, fairness, humility, and respect for the rule of law.
Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, during his time as Kaduna governor, was often accused of executive overreach. Many people believed he used power too aggressively, especially in moments where restraint, dialogue, and respect for institutions were needed. Those criticisms were valid then.
But that does not make it right for anyone to persecute him now.
Wrong is wrong, whether committed by yesterday’s powerful man or today’s powerful government. If El-Rufai overreached in office, that should be condemned. If the federal government, Kaduna State Government, or ICPC is now overreaching against him, that too must be condemned.
Justice is not revenge. Law is not a weapon for political payback. State power must not become a tool for humiliating former allies who have fallen out with the current power structure.
The most shocking part is that President Tinubu, Governor Uba Sani, and those around them appear not to be learning from the very man standing before them. Only a few years ago, El-Rufai was shielded by immunity, surrounded by power, and feared by many. Today, he is tasting the vulnerability of a private citizen facing the machinery of the state.
That same lesson is waiting for everyone in power.
In one year, four years, or five years, immunity will expire. Convoys will disappear. Security details will reduce. Loyalists will relocate to the next powerful man. The same institutions being used today can be used tomorrow by another government.
This is why leaders must build institutions, not personal empires. A country where the executive can bend the legislature, influence the judiciary, pressure agencies, and weaponize law enforcement is not practicing democracy in full. It is practicing civilian power without enough restraint.
The real prayer is simple: may we never persecute anyone, and may nobody persecute us.
But beyond prayer, Nigeria needs leaders who understand that power is a trust, not permanent ownership.
Because when power leaves, only justice can protect you.

@Mod33333 Are the two charges same? If the personality was not El Rufai would we be saying these things. These are matters of national security and unfortunately the Mallam played himself into it by being too loud.

The Bitter Paradox of Bail: How the Court Rendered Freedom Impossible for Mallam Nasir El-Rufai Yet Granted Easier Terms to Yahaya Bello
In a nation that claims fidelity to the rule of law, recent developments have once again exposed a troubling imbalance in the administration of justice. The bail conditions imposed on Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai go far beyond strict, they appear structurally unattainable. Requiring sureties of ₦100 million each, tied to Grade Level 17 federal civil servants with verified properties in Maitama or Asokoro and significant financial capacity, raises a fundamental question: is this bail designed for compliance, or for continued restriction under another name?
When contrasted with the treatment of Yahaya Bello, the disparity becomes even more striking. A man facing EFCC cases reportedly running into over ₦190 billion, and who publicly resisted arrest, was granted bail conditions that were considerably more attainable. Meanwhile, another who submitted himself within the legal framework is confronted with terms that even the highest-ranking civil servants would struggle to satisfy. This is not a minor inconsistency, it is a contradiction that demands scrutiny.
Justice must not only be done, it must be seen to be done. Bail is a constitutional safeguard, not a punitive instrument. When conditions effectively deny that right, the system risks replacing due process with selective application. This is no longer just about individuals, it is about the integrity of the legal system and the confidence of citizens who depend on it for fairness.
For the El-Rufai Live movement, this moment underscores a deeper concern about equal treatment under the law. Nigerians are watching closely, not just the legal arguments, but the signals being sent about accountability, consistency, and institutional independence. When standards appear to shift depending on the individual, trust begins to erode.
We remain resolute in our call for fairness rooted in principle, not preference. Bail must remain a right accessible within reason, not an obstacle constructed beyond reach. The law must speak with one voice, not different tones for different people.
The Movement is Rising.
Justice Must Be Consistent.

@OlayinkaLere Is this guy okay? I think he needs to take a break. He's tired both physically and emotionally.
English

@YemmyAj It shows that the number of dull, uninformed, ill-informed, misinformed and angry people against the government is high. Otherwise this guy can't win a local estate election.

@B_ELRUFAI @elrufai His mouth has put him in a tight corner. Remember loose lips sink ships.

Press Release: Our father, Mallam Nasir @elrufai, is still being held by the ICPC. Today, 15 May 2026, we witnessed two distinct yet equally serious attacks on his basic rights. First, his personal Doctor visited the ICPC at about 3pm to discuss the results of medical tests recently conducted on our father. Officials at the agency blocked the doctor from seeing him, claiming that written permission from the ICPC Chairman was required. This directly flouts a clear court order granting Mallam Nasir El‑Rufai unrestricted access to his doctors.
Second, his wife, Aunty Aichatou, brought his evening meal at around 7pm as she normally does. ICPC personnel turned her away, saying they had orders not to permit food deliveries after 6:30pm. This arbitrary rule is no less offensive than blocking his right to medical care.
These acts are an outright assault on the rule of law and a clear violation of our father's constitutional and human rights. No lawful detention justifies denying medical access or refusing basic family care based on an arbitrary curfew fixed by the ICPC. Shame on them as an institution.
We demand that all his constitutional rights be fully respected. We will no longer accept this pattern of intimidation dressed up as protocol. The ICPC must abide by the very laws it claims to enforce.
Signed
Hon. Mohammed Bello El-Rufai
Member.
Kaduna North Federal Constituency
Chairman, Committee on Banking Regulations.
