Attahiru Bafarawa, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party and former governor of Sokoto, says Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna, cannot force northerners to vote for Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress .published by BBC Hausa, on Saturday, Bafarawa said some comments el-Rufai made in his recent interview are disrespectful to elders in the north.he is 63 years old and has become an elder, adding that “there are no elders with dignity in the north”.
“We see his comment as a disrespectful one. What he was supposed to speak on was how the north and the country at large could improve,” Bafarawa said.“Also, el-Rufai said he contested for election and was voted into office. If this is what he calls being an elderly person with dignity, before he even contested, we contested and people voted for us.
“Therefore, we that he doesn’t see as elders with dignity will show him that elders exist in the north. Even if there are , he should preach to them rather than generalise. “Also, he came out and was proudly saying that Tinubu will win the election whether people like it or not. Who told him that the whole of the north are supporting the APC?“It’s just his opinion. Therefore, he has no right to boast with the north because everyone has their own candidates. The way he is campaigning for Tinubu is how we are campaigning for our candidate.
Force or no force it's a task that must be done .gasikya
The hypocrites dwells in a dry land.
For your information too,If Nigeria can easily fall back to your candidate’s , then just forget about Nigeria . EFCC couldn’t expose them but God did and you will understand it better on 27/2/23
Thats a northerner with a difference..you must not have a monopoly on choice of who vote for,elrufai should know this
Tinibu issues are getting worrisome by the days in counting.
Hmm,,, We're watching you tarr', vote is our choice not theirs.
Oops! Thot dat was sealed!
It seems most northerners can't reason themselves except for what their elites tell them to do. Yet they suffer them a lot. It's time to reason alone and vote for the best candidate.
He can't!! We must vote for our choices. We're illiterate but politically wise.
BOGbadams
This one that collected Arms money for prayers still dey talk? 🙄
Please tell him PeterObi is your choice because you people truly want a change and this is the man who can deliver, instead of acting as if he will be the one to do the voting on people's behalf. N0nsen$e
The north already used tinubu and dumped him.
Bafarawa Elrufai Is Just One Person, And An Ordinary Person For That Matter, Elrufai Has NO Capacity In Any Way To Force Or Influence Northerners To Vote Tinubu Or Apc.
Strong man
Let's northerners bothered about that. If you know will not, then don't do it
Says the man who wants Atiku as president. Oga, all of una na d same old layers.
The highly selfish Northern elites continue to use their Arewa masses, 'talakawas' as Puns in a political Chess board!

Agbadonias and Mikano please arrange the GP tank for cry cry plz Feb 25 is here for PO
Wahaleaux
If Tinubu or Obi does not win this elections then expect a fully blown agitation for the independence of the southern protectorate of Nigeria...Void of British Control ...
Hell rufai deserved a beating from the northerners because he's MAD
One of those who plunged Nigeria into failures for their selfish gains
Yes sir we will never vote him.
Well Spoken
No one is forcing us. Tinubu all the way.
El-Rufia would prefer the northerners remain gullible and blind to the reality degrading the North for his own selfish intentions
yes oo tell him
Dem no born anybody well wey go force me to vote thief or drug baron for this election. VoteWisely Obidatti023
yes oo, you can’t force we northerners o
You are right, my brother. No body can force anybody or any group or party to vote for anybody or any group.or party. Vote for the individual you have in mind.
'We will surprise them; we will show them that this country belongs to nobody, likewise the north.” I enjoyed this.
Of course sir.
El rufai is a short man with a poor dental hygiene and an over inflated ego.
Ana ta wuya wake yin ta Kai, kaima zatijo ne, Dan chacha
Who be this one ....I don't even know him or here about him neither
Who this shameless man...
Tinubu is a drug criminal and identity thief. He's not fit to be president
Thank you Bafarawa
It is clear that Northerners play corrupt, unjust, lopsided, bad politics and governance. How can some elites and politicians in the North refuse to campaign, support and vote Peter Obi ? A most credible Nigerian from core SE Nigeria.
The way northern governors talk about northern voters, they confidently say it in such a manner that pontend the average northern individual as lacking the ability to make personal decision on how to vote and who to vote for. ObiDatti will liberate them from wicked leadees.....
This man de vex seriously see face.
We are voting for Tinubu by Will Insha Allah 💪
Be aiding bandit's, all of you claiming to be northern elders kept mute when the regions was on a burning fire, now because of your selfish interest that is very political you have comes out to speak about General Mai rusau,who is far ahead of you in times of caring for the north
Never supported crime against the Northerners nor did he collect millions from a questionable source, just to enriched himself and let his people be killed, please Bafarawa should go and address the issues of bandit's in his sokoto state, where his sister son was once alleged to
Gone are days some of you guys will come and sell us for your selfish interest, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai alians General Mai rusau is more and far better a passionate northerner than some of you, because his plans is to see a productive northern Nigeria, where peace reigns, he has
Nobody is going to force anybody but i am a northerner and i am voting for tunubu 🤷🏽♂️
Passionate about the North, you wouldn't have agreed to sell it to bandit's and kidnappers, what I mean here is by collecting money meant to buy arms and fight against the problems of the north, it is assume you sold the regions to those that wants to finished us,
Please tell this Man that General Mai rusau is not forcing Northerners to vote for ABAT,he is saying what is just right, what passion does this man called Bafarawa has for the north, someone who illegally collected millions from Dasuki gates,is talking about North, if you are
The end of Tinubu political career. Emilokan in the mud.
Likewise, you can't force northerners to vote for Atiku. We have come of age, nobody should decide for us who to support.
It’s so obvious the fulani want to retain power after 8years of buhar. Let’s be honest elrufai supporting Tinubu he might have interior motive. All I know is the only candidate from the south is Mr Peter Obi. Let’s vote for papa,mama and pikin📌
That's has being the Game Plan since😊
God bless you
Thunder ⚡ fire El rufa and his generations Do southerns politician force southerns to vote atiku Abubakar For Power rotation let the voters decided
😁😁fight don start
This is an Atiku ally.
Spiritual Babalawo you are speaking to yourself
Were you able to deliver your state to your party in 2015 and 2019, old man? Nope! You failed. If I were you, I would be bothered by what Senator Wamako has done to the PDP in Sokoto. 😆
The kneling governor is up to sth. He behaves like he is the secretary of all these blood suckers
Excellent
Jungle don dey mature
Tinubu is not fit to lead Nigeria except we want to appreciate Buhari after. 🤷🏽♂️
The will of God & people shall pravail come what may
The prayer contractor that should be behind bars
Dinosaurs of corruption resurrecting …. Bafarawa isn’t in tune with the times. He needs to be fossilized so he doesn’t disrupt ongoing electoral process.
Yes oh. Na Peter Obi we go vote
Time wasting cos the short man can't tell even his gateman who to vote not to talk of his village people. Elrufai don't have one influence on Kaduna people.
Northerns cannot vote for officialABAT not after he did to okada boys and mile 12 traders. Vote PeterObi dattibabaahmed NgLabour
Thank you sir
Hellrufai that is persecuting the christians now was the same person who visited LatterRain Assembly years back in Lagos when he was about to contest for governorship.. What was his reason for visiting?we're not sure.
Yes but we can tell ourselves the basic truth. It's time for power to shift to Southern Nigeria. How has our eight years of leadership improved us?
The worst thing that will happen to Nigeria is to allow the power to go back to the North, I want Northeasterns to take back the power so that all southern Nigerians will start asking for their own separate country, Nigeria need to be divide
Sokoto state votes go choke ooo, Baba don talk.
Sorry he didn't force you,are you the north? Weightless .
No one will be forced, the embrace Asiwaju willingly. Enjoy your pain
Where and when did El-Rufai ever threatened Northerners to vote for Tinubu? Baseless talk
El-rufai is just an errand boy on the mission to destabilize peace in the north, but we a device to turn it down on the 25th of February. North is too big too big for him to dictate to. He's just a mare tout. Kabarmu dashi Sir, zamu koya masa hankali arewa ba Kaduna bace.
Hellrufiai leave our northern brothers alone. Not everyone like your presidential candidate.
Spiritual contractor, do you want to force the southerners to vote Atiku either? Hassan tells Bafarawa
They are talking about the noble Northerners not those that stole security money under Goodluck Jonathan when Boko haram are killing and bombing the whole of Nigeria
Bros,no stress yourself, voting is a freewill thing,no coaction because it involves multitude,no wahala okay!!!
But Tinubu sheepishly vote for Northerner and not only that he worked tirelessly for Northerner. When will Southerners learn?
Lol trouble in paradise 🤣🤣🤣 kwankwanso will will NW n NE, Peter Obi will win NC simple
The North wants to hijack power again through Tinubu. And we can't afford another Fulani man taking power from another Fulani man. So Atiku should rest. Nigeria belongs to all of us. Mr Peter Obi is the real deal. Vote LP for a better Nigeria.
Bafarawa vote your choice and leave APC matter.
Alu win deal with you decisively in sokoto just wait for 25th of February and mrsrch 11 you and tambuwal will the learn the greatest lessons of your lives
Jungle is that you?
Tell him oh, is it by force?
Lmao! Where did this clown pop out from? What did he do when he was in position to make things happen?
Oga, stop all thess theatrics with that small stout. Y'all northern APC has been working to betray Tinubu. Na the fool wey I dey pity.
elrufai
That's the only truth nobody can force a APC to us walahi
By the way, did u return the monies u collected from GEJ for spiritual mago mago?
And you are conscientious of what you are saying?
the game is over, tribal bigots
Among other Presidential candidates, Only Peter Obi has spoken,telling Nigerians to go get their PVC&vote, because he knew when a mosquito lands on your testicles that's when you'll realised there's always a way to solve problems without violence. Vote for Peter Obi
Says the merchant of spiritual contractors.
Mr Bafarawa,so your there and El-Rufai claimed to be the only northern elder.
Fact
Fulannis don't love theirselves they are not United, fulannis are divided into three as I'm writing. Shamful end of an emperor's..........,.......
And you can't force northerners to vote Atiku or any candidate either.
The only governor that thinks well in the entire north. No shade..
Yakamata yasani kam,bazamu zabi tununbu ba
Nice one
Or will a northerner retain the seat again.. una won cause problem that will not finish.. or Nigeria break up. North rule,west rule, South rule, turn of the East, Sai LP. Those that join this union together have a vision for Nigeria than set of leaders we have today. Shame shame
El Rufai should be thought a lesson on the day of election.
But elrufai wants to use his religion and tribal bigot to do it Creating enmity among Northerners..
Your PVC, your vote
Which rigion this one from
Please loud it oooooo
Yachi kudin makamai.
We northerner we never consider u has a elder let the real northern elders speak not u
Agbado boys go over cry
U guys should keep forcing urselves... LP will head to aso rock
What’s the exchange rate of naira to naira in your area?
Things we love to see/hear
His issue is: “I sha must talk. Even if it doesn’t make any sense.”
God bless you real good. You don see road
After all their party doesn't believe Northern elders has political value. Day don break!!!!
We will show el rufai and apc shege on feb 25, apc will never rule this country again by God grace
We shall see. This is a battle between the northern state's men and some bunch of old locusts.
Otanyin! Etirinkankan😎 You see, you aren't seen nothing yet 😄😄😄
Bafarawa the spiritual consultant. Nigeria 🇳🇬 is a lenient country to live sha. If not Bafarawa should eating gapza and beans mixed with stones for prison. Some Nigerians 🇳🇬 are more than grateful we are not in China
Yes oooo. Our individual PVC is solely our rights and power. Vote For The Best Candidate 🚶🏼♀️🚶🏼♀️🚶🏼♀️
Absolutely 💯 nobody has the right to force us to vote for tinubu. Apc will never rule Nigeria again In sha Allah
I absolutely agree !
Class Captain of the 1999 set of Governors have Spoken.
Who be this thing way be like amu gbo. elrufai is not forcing anyone he is doing the right thing because he has sense more than you. He knows the constitution
So dis criminal is still alive
See this village Bujumbura with tribal marks like d8d he force Tinubu on the North or is it a crime for a Northerner to associate with southerner politically.
The current hardship under buhari will be multiplied under thiefnubu. He will reduce your purchasing power just like buhari has done with naira redesign. Voting for officialABAT is voting for hardship. Hear from the horse mouth.
You too can't force northerner to vote for Atiku.
Says an irrelevant politician. El Rufai is influential in the north and you are not
This election go too sweet 😂😂
Ok
🤣🤣🤣
Uga rest if Atiku wins that is 16yrs for North where is your conscience
El-Rufai is claiming to be speaking on behalf of the northern.
Jungle is maturing. Premium tears awaits bats and Agabdo 🌽 boys
