Integrity: Senator Mocks El-Rufai’s Defence After Damning Probe Report

Former lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani, has alleged that the Kaduna State government under Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, left behind a legacy of misappropriation and with it, a mountain of debts for the children of the poor in Kaduna State.

The statement came after the adoption of a report by an ad-hoc committee of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, demanding an investigation of El-Rufai by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC over alleged misappropriation running into billions of naira.

According to the report, most of the loans obtained under the El-Rufai’s administration were not used for the purpose for which they were obtained, while in some cases, due process was not followed in securing the loans.

But the former governor responded insisting he led a government of integrity and competence during his eight-year administration.

El-Rufai said the report was a “politically motivated hatchet job”, insisting he served with integrity.

However, Sani, in a post on his X handle on Thursday, said he did not know what “serving with integrity means” in respect to the defence by El-Rufai over the debts.

He suggested that the next step is to ensure the recovery of the stolen money from the leeches and vultures.

“‘The Kaduna Assembly has done a good job. I wish to congratulate them.The next step is to ensure the recovery of our stolen money from those leeches and vultures. Kaduna state was simply plundered by fraudulent technocrats, thieving consultants and contractors domiciled in Sir Kashim Ibrahim House. For anyone who cared to go through that published report, I don’t know what “serving with integrity means”. Kaduna was a victim of two types of Banditry; the one in our forests and the one in the Government house.They left behind estates and malls for their children and left behind a mountain of debt for the children of the poor,” Sani said.
