He Wants To Be Next Buhari — Nigerians Blast El-Rufai’s For Saying He Used Religion To Win Election

 

Nigerians have lambasted Nasir el-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna State.

 

This comes after he was caught in a video boasting about Muslims leading the affairs of the country and how he decieved Christians with the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the All Progressives Congress.

 

A Twitter user, Will. E, had posted a video where the former governor, flanked by Uba Sani, his successor, is seen addressing a group of Muslims in Hausa after Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was declared winner of the election.

 

Will. E translated the video and accused el-Rufai and the APC of using religion to win the election.

 

“Because religion was used that’s why Allah gave Tinubu victory. What we successfully did in Kaduna (Mu-Mu) has now been replicated all over the country. No liar will ever contest as a Christian and win election ever again. Peter Obi tried and you can see where he is today, we’ve done the medicine for that one. Since Asiwaju won the election, CAN has been silent,” Will.E tweeted.

I understand the game that El-rufai thinks he's playing

He wants to be seen as some sort of Islamic Messiah up North as Buhari is.

He also knows that no matter how provocative his views are, the so-called educated South would always be willing to embrace him when the time comes

I condemn the provocative and divisive bigotry inherent in the statements of Governor @elrufai on Islamic dominance of politics in Kaduna and Nigeria. A political agenda founded on ethnicity and religion is anathema to a diverse and plural Nigeria. No to Yes Daddies on all sides.

I don't understand why you people are shocked by the El- Rufai video Sha.

The man has never hidden his hatred for Christians.

What exactly is shocking una?

Demola somehow found a way to make the El-Rufai controversy to be about Peter Obi. While, Reno is busy explaining on Rufai’s behalf saying he said “Christians won’t be cheated”.

There can be no cheating worse than what went on in Southern Kaduna under his watch.

As a Christian, if that El-Rufai video didn't send shiver down your spine. No lele. I'm just here to remind you that he literally meant that no Christian will ever rule this country again. You see that persecution inside Bible, kekere ni. Oju yin ma ri mabo.

This thing Elrufai is doing is to ensure he becomes the Next Buhari from the North so when Power comes back to them, he'd be in Pole Position to grab it with the help of Southern Slaves like Mark Essien and Iyin aboyeji.

What a shame

I gave up on NG Christians when I saw them defending a Muslim-Muslim Ticket & their Pastors lashing at Youths to support the same Ticket.

El Rufai can spit as much Religious Bigotry as he likes cos he knows Southern Christians & 90% of their Leaders are Slaves 👍

Do we still have CAN ? By now CAN in Nigeria and Kaduna should be protesting this Islamization agenda spilled by El Rufai or r they compromised as he openly indicted CAN as gone mute. Remember after they hv finished killing Northern Christians they will come South. Act now CAN pic.twitter.com/MuRFxwr108

El Rufai planned, strategized and implement the waging of war against the Christians in Kaduna State while he was Governor and now they are championing the Islamization agenda with Tinubu Muslim Muslim presidency.

Odd! Very occasionally, secular and non-Muslim Nigerians wake up briefly and are shocked by how Islam exclusively underpins the power structures and statecraft of their country. There is a brief period of nystagmus & panic in disbelief, and then they doze off again. https://t.co/wa4mUi3lcf

This is the religious supremacy I speak of. The likes of El Rufai are many, not a minority. The fact that majority of those who share same faith with him are not calling him out for his incessant divisive rhetorics and boastful utterances should tell you something. https://t.co/kD6XFLQWi3

Let me translate this open conspiracy word-for-word to Nigerian Christians, especially the ones supporting the Islamic Brotherhood Party of Nigeria, aka APC

By this video, if Peter Obi actually said it was a religious war, he has a legit Intel and he knows what exactly he is talking about. https://t.co/95y7an8o7s

Pastor Paul Adefarasin and co are still preaching Saul and David...lol. I give him two years, he will climb that pulpit and lament again.
These guys are not joking, and they are taking their crusade seriously. https://t.co/UbDfzd0rSh

Honestly, I like Rufai's bigotry... He doesn't hide it, he never did. Even as FCT Minister, he was a proud one.

I only detest the people who support this blatant display of ignorance by someone who had a solid taste of Western Education.

Very shameful https://t.co/opkvTnNxyw

The biggest mistake was voting out Jonathan in 2015. That singular move set back Christianity in Nigerian politics for years. https://t.co/8kH4riDM8X

The confidence someone will use to look down on another religion and you will expect Christian’s to vote for you tomorrow. History does not forget we shall remind you of this statement . For those who understand religious tolerance.this man has gone too far https://t.co/aTem8sHRBb
