El Rufai And His Tantrum By Richard Akinnola by oduneja: 10:38am On Nov 16, 2016
If there is someone who has no locus standi to accuse anyone of being corrupt, it is El Rufai. Or is Jimi Lawal still not one of his Special Advisers and close confidante in Kaduna? That El Rufai is just a bloody opportunist, a fair weather friend. When it was convenient for him, he was the best of friend with Nuhu Ribadu but when there was a clash of presidential ambitions of the duo, he ditched his friend Nuhu and lied against him in his book, which l called the Accidental liar. Atiku brought him to the BPE and nominated him as a minister. When he was at the BPE and in the good books of then Vice president Atiku, El Rufai granted an interview wirh the Guardian in September 2003. When asked about allegations of corruption against Atiku, he said those making such allegations don't know Atiku, that he was not a corrupt person. He said:"At BPE, l had a completely free hand. I took independent decisions and not once dud the Vice president even asked me to bend the rules for anyone. The bidding for the sale of any company, because of the way we structured it, was so transparent that there was no way anyone could know who would win. So, if you cannot arrange anyone in advance and bribe someone to win, why should you pay somebody? But the people want to believe the worst about our leaders and l don't blame them because we have had leaders who had done all kinds of things. But l happen to know the story of Atiku Abubakar". Barely three years after, El Rufai had now switched camp to OBJ and he began to sing new tunes. Speaking on BBC "Focus on Africa" on February 22, 2007, El Rufai said:"The president's greatest worry about the vice president running for the office is the wrong message it will send. The vice president has been engaged in corruption for a long time..." And this same man later fought OBJ. Can the testimony of such a double-faced man be taken with some tinge of seriousness? When this opportunist needed the political suppirt and votes of the Shiites for him to win as Kaduna governor, he went to genuflect before El Zakzzaki, the Shiites leader. But today, having achieved his purpose, he is the traducer of the Shiites. This was the same opportunist who had lampooned Buhari few years ago, saying he was not a fit and proper person to be president, now today, one of the closest allies of Buhari. Whatever El Rufai is saying today against Atiku should not be taken seriously. It's the presidential battle of 2019 that is at play. El Rufai, since 2006 had nursed presidential ambition and he is laying the blocks for his 2019 presidential ambition and he is ready to politically decapitate anyone that stands in his way - even Buhari.
