FACT CHECK: elrufai made several claims in a Channels TV interview, how true are they? | TheCable FactCheck

, the house of representatives also made an attempt to amend the CCB and tribunal act, to permit public servants own and run private businesses, aside from farming – which the law only approves.“Borno state is four times the size of the five south-east states.”False. In terms of land mass, Borno is only 2.5 times bigger than the five south-eastern states put together, not 4 times as el-Rufai claimed.

while analysing some of the difficulties faced by Nigerians with the scarcity of the new naira notes. He said the peculiarity of the challenge differs from state to state, noting that some states with limited banks will require residents to travel several kilometres to deposit their funds., was subdivided in 1991 when Yobe was carved out of it.to the north, Lake Chad to the northeast, and Cameroon to the east.

Elrufai is gradually reducing himself to the likes of FFK that talks without reasoning. I respect Elrufai a lot and equally reading of his book

Land mass can not bring sucesss to borno people. Education and hard work will definitely help. These two criterials are actually not in existence in borno state. Borno is one of the sharing states in nigeria.

El-Rufai said Borno State is bigger than the whole of the South East put together., and not times 4.

Are we talking about landscape or human being population mr e-rufai

Ok... so the entire east is less than half of born... Ok... correction still supports his argument

Land mass scam again!!

This is a non-issue, the fact remains Borno State is several times larger than SE states put together, that is the point. In itself is shows the scale of size differential between north-south. So it is annoying for someone who ruled poorly in Anambra to say he can rule Nigeria.

elrufai fake

All the same 2.5 times the whole states of South east. Only BORNO. El Rufai carry on. How many lies has PO made? He even said Nasarawa is a country!!!

What is the difference?

And Borno can be a COUNTRY on its own and for its own. Why not? Why be a big burden on human security resources and oil moneys. (They now even have oil reserves bigger than China and USA, why not be a nation and spare the small state small people the burden of association?)

Oyinnia Landmass not even population, South East is densely populated. North do not have the number they boast of, immigration arrested 1000 foreigners with PVC the other day.

When we talk about votes, shouldn't we be talking about population rather than land mass?

This short man lies a lot.

Land mass that contributes little to nothing to the growth of the nation

Oh, so it's still bigger by 2.5? So?

What difference does it make. The fact has been established that Borno state doubles the entirety of the South East in land mass and most probably in population. Mallam El-rufai has a pass for his verdict.

Can the north survive without federal government monthly allocations shares to the states,they have no human resources and intelligence to stand on their own

Terrorist sympathisers,the five states of the southeast are more progressive,productive,have man-power and human resources than the entire northern part of Nigeria.

Land no dey vote

Fake news carried by a whole governor of a state about another state that he wasn't a governor. Census indeed!

In other words, the people who created Nigeria had plans and targets.

So Borno state is 2.5 times larger and bigger than the entire Biafra land, aka South East of Nigeria. Omo, this shocking 😳

Wastelands. The Sahara desert is 20 times bigger than Nigeria. And so?

…does that translate to population. If not for the fake statistics that they are giving that the North has a greater population. Which is all false.Deserts region

Big for nothing parasite

And what is borno contributing to our national cover?

Size not population.

Is Sahara desert not many times bigger than Nigeria,but was there life there It's only fools that uses land mass that are not inhabited by human beings as comparisons for human development & economic prosperity & wealth creation.

Let me explain to our Agbado brother's.. Anambra state has 2.4m registered voters while Borno with almighty land mass has 2.3m registered voters.. You people should stop deceiving una horrible selves..

2.5 times bigger than the whole of South East is massive. That's pretty significant!!!

Imagine having this one as a minister of whatever. I rebuke it.

The point is, is it bigger than or not.

Fulani terrorist, fulani janjahweed promoter.

What a liar this man is!

It is only in Nigeria that we equate land mass to population especially when it suit a kind of fraud we are pulling. Fraudulent by nature.

And?

When has elections been decided on land mass? This little man is just too fake.

But it's bigger right?

Do you also know that more than 4 million people from south East are living in Lagos alone, not to talk of other part of the country and world at large, I have not seen a Borno person in Imo state, but there so many south East people in Borno

Fact checker olodo

Is it by population or landmass? All that land have no economic value to Nigerians at present, if it does, Nigeria would have attend food sufficiency by now. Stop the noise abeg, because it make no sense.

Half of which is occupied by terrorists

Is it bigger or not?

Who even listens to that one with a napoleon complex.

Is it the land size we're using to vote ?. How does this even become an issue ?

We don’t care

Short man lier

The accidental public servant is overly concerned about the size of states. He has forsaken his Kaduna brothers in the hands of bandits. Misplaced priority cannot be less defined.

Ba mage ba miyau

That means is uselessly big

El-Rufai is a liar,he is just there deceiving himself and the North

Do you realized that South-East are the most populated zone in Nigeria. Even in voting strength, Igbos are the most populated according INEC. In every state in Nigeria you must see at least 30% of Ndi Igbos.The way Peter Obi go take win this election you El-Rufai go run

You Need To Say This To Your Spirit, Soul, and Body; I am not an empty barrel, I am full of grace and glorious content, I will manifest glory in Jesus' name, AMEN!

Hell Rufai has always been a liar. Even the Borno land is not half occupied

So what difference does it make...e big abi e no big🤷🏻‍♂️

You people have time to be fact checking El-Rufai that is confused and leaving in delusion

That's enough to make SE electoral strength worthless!

But then, population wise, what is the size? That is the context in which he was speaking

Ba cinya ba dai.... Elrufai is on the track.

It’s absolutely an honour to fact-check El-Rufai. El-Rufai and facts are parallel

He's talking voters no. you are talking land. You miss it!

The remaining 1.5 will be 1 LGA in Kaduna. Trust me 1 LGA

He is not known to be truthful. Why border to factcheck?

Wasted land mass

El Rufai and his gangs should be weary of all these deceits and manipulations by now.

4 times and 2.5 times. What he is saying is that the votes of SE is never up to that of Borno state. Gaskiya.

They said someone is your senior you are saying no, just with a few year a head of you. Just accept that Your senior is your senior.

Either way

Russia with almost 1/3 of world landmass is not the most populous country on earth. Borno could actually be 1/2 the size of Africa and still be sparsely populated. Landmass is not same as high population density.

Hell rufai is a promoter of hate and religious intolerance. Nigeria cannot just become good overnight with people like elrufai still around the corridor of Power to stir evil within and manipulate the teeming population of gullible northeners.

Vast land Vast insecurity Oponu governor

2023 sai ATIKU

You're such a hypocrite! Speaking from both sides of your mouth. Eye service aficionado. Duplicitous fellow. You've always been on the side of punishing Nigerians. When did you become this caring Nasir Ahmad el-Rufai? Nigerians, shine your eyes. Election riggers are on the prowl.

Mr El-Rufai, land mass with empty brain is equal to calamity. Nigeria is more than South Korea together with Israel but in next 50years Nigeria will not equal them in technology.

So?

If you truly want to be fair to El Rufai, ask those who he has worked under like Obasanjo, who called him a serial liar. Ask Atiku.

But is still far bigger than all the Southeast States...

A win is a win So is bigger is bigger

Most land in the north are unoccupied territory that is what breeding insecurity,tell me for instance how many human houses you can count from Gwada to Sarkin pawa? More people live in the southern and middle belt part of Nigeria than in the north.

elrufai Excellency, ka gani?

Join a study community today.

Lol. But it's bigger than the whole SE. No problem 🤷‍♀️

Midget

elrufai No politicians can tell you the truth without have his ulterior motive behind it.

elrufai So only one statement is true, chai what a travesty of moral ethics.

elrufai Bloody liar 😃💥😂😃

elrufai Elrufai is just a mare GOSSIPER aka MGBAFOR 😂
