El-Rufai will face consequences of his actions

A Kaduna State House of Assembly member representing Zaria constituency Mahmud Lawal has said former Governor Nasiru El-Rufai’s decision to pursue legal action over alleged misappropriation of N432 billion is “laughable”.

“El-Rufa’i seems to have conveniently forgotten the Principle of Separation of Powers enshrined in the constitution, which mandates non-interference between the executive, legislature, and judiciary,” Lawal said.“Does he believe that by resorting to legal action, he can obstruct the legislature from carrying out its constitutional duties? Rest assured, El-Rufa’i will face the consequences of his actions, and the public will soon witness this.

Lawal criticized the projects carried out by the El-Rufa’i administration in Kaduna State, alleging that they were primarily aimed at personal enrichment, with little regard for the welfare of the populace. “The shops started to wear off even before occupation by traders. The most brazen display of dishonesty was the metropolitan rail line project, for which a substantial amount of money in billions was allocated. But what happened to the project, and where is the money? The only evidence seems to be paper records indicating spending on surveys and map design.”
