El-Rufai stated this when he hosted former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar at his residence over the weekend.
Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai has accused President Bola Tinubu's administration of being worse than a military regime.
According to him, Tinubu's government is a threat to democratic governance.
El-Rufai stated this when he hosted former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar at his residence over the weekend, condemning the Tinubu administration and labeling it a disgrace to the very principles of democracy.
Atiku paid a solidarity visit to former Governor El-Rufai following an attack that occurred during the inauguration of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in Kaduna State.
Recall that thugs stormed the venue of the inauguration and disrupted the proceedings.
Meanwhile, El-Rufai and the Kaduna State government had traded words on the issue, accusing each other of being behind the attack.
“Honestly sir, to me, it is even a disgrace. I mean, for people to behave the way they are behaving, it means that all the years of saying that we are for democracy and NADECO, all the claims that we are fighting for true federalism and so on—it was all a pretense, all fake again. Because this government (Tinubu’s administration) is trying to centralize everything instead of devolving power to the lower levels.”
“The sum total of this is that we are facing an evil of such a large proportion in the history of this country that if we don’t come together and end this Tinubu administration by 2027, Tinubu will try to be our Paul Biya. All the signs are there, this is how Paul Biya started,” El-Rufai said.
