The African Democratic Congress Drops Bombshell: Former Kaduna Governor’s Detention Is a “Deliberate Plot” to Cripple Opposition
The ADC claims the APC-led government is playing dirty—detaining Nasir el-Rufai on “impossible” bail terms to keep him sidelined until after the next presidential election.
What’s Really Going On?
· ADC’s Bold Claim: The government plans to hold el-Rufai in “perpetuity” until the 2027 polls are over.
· Health Crisis Alert: El-Rufai was reportedly rushed to the National Hospital with failing health and was advised to remain under watch.
· Bail Blockade: ICPC and DSS are prosecuting him on multiple charges, but bail conditions are allegedly “impossible to meet.”
The Opposition’s Warning
“If anything happens to el-Rufai, President Tinubu will be held responsible.”
Bolaji Abdullahi, ADC Spokesperson
The Bigger Picture
The ADC argues this isn’t about justice it’s about fear. They believe el-Rufai, if freed, would:
· Strengthen opposition unity
· Expose uncomfortable truths the government wants buried
Justice or Political Vendetta?
While the ADC insists it supports legitimate prosecution, it condemns what it calls “legal loopholes used as a cage” raising serious questions about due process in Nigeria’s evolving political landscape.
Will el-Rufai see freedom before 2027? Or is this the beginning of a new era of pre-election crackdowns?
