#Shehu Sani Slams El-Rufai, Calls Him a “Frustrated Jobless Ex-Governor”

Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has launched a scathing attack on former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, labeling him a “midget professor” and a “frustrated, jobless ex-governor” desperate for attention.

Sani’s remarks followed El-Rufai’s recent criticism of the All Progressives Congress (APC), where the former governor accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration of attempting to undermine opposition parties and straying from the party’s founding principles.

Reacting in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) handle on Thursday, Sani accused El-Rufai of hypocrisy, alleging that he practiced tyranny and persecuted opponents during his time as governor but now pretends to champion democracy.

“When in power in Kaduna, he practised tyranny and unleashed evil; out of power, he is sanctimoniously preaching democracy to the country he helped wreck, plundered, and persecuted,” Sani stated.

He further accused El-Rufai of leaving Kaduna in economic ruin, claiming that his tenure was marked by debt accumulation, religious division, and widespread corruption.

Sani mocked the former governor’s sudden criticism of the Tinubu administration, likening his situation to a man who “demonizes a woman after being rejected.”

“El-Rufai praised Tinubu as an angel when he was in favor, but now, after being pushed aside, he calls him a demon,” Sani remarked.

He also alleged that if El-Rufai had secured a position in Tinubu’s administration, “no critic of the government in the North or South would have been spared from his toxicity.”

According to Sani, El-Rufai is now “jobless and desperate for relevance,” often seeking invitations to northern events where he stirs sectional sentiments.

The former senator’s comments have further fueled tensions between the two politicians, who have had a long-standing political rivalry in Kaduna State.
