Former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai will this weekend be honoured with the chieftaincy title of Gbobaniyi of Ijebuland by the Awujale HRM Dr. Sikiru Kayode Adetona.

El-Rufai’s media adviser Muyiwa Adekeye disclosed this on Wednesday in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

Adekeye also shared a congratulatory message sent to El-Rufai by Pastor and Mrs Tunde Bakare.

In the message, Bakare wrote “Your penchant for good governance is one of the most outstanding virtues I have always admired about you.

“Your unreserved loyalty and commitment to public interest have never been in doubt since our paths crossed.

“Therefore, it is with great joy that we received the news of your being honored with the chieftaincy title, Gbobaniyi of Ijebuland, by the Awujale and Paramount Ruler of Ijebuland, HRM Alaiyeluwa Oba (Dr.) Sikiru Kayode Adetona (Ogbagba II), CFR, JP.

“The Gbobaniyi of ljebuland is a highly respected title in the Ijebu Kingdom. This is because the bearer of such a title has the responsibility of promoting the king’s image, as well as fostering the overall social-economic development and growth of ljebuland.

“We strongly believe you will bring to bear your wealth of experience in public administration for the good of the ljebu people. May God grant you long life and good health to continually be a blessing to humanity. Blessings & Honors Galore.

So, everything is yellow to the jaundice eyes!

El Rufai, actually desert honour but ,for his pentiant for Fulani-Heardmen and killings in Southern Kaduna is a big,big minus for him!

The next Northern President of Nigeria..


This I have seen in the voice of falseprophet1

Gbobaniyi Ma fun Gbogboyin ni breakfast as usual

Title to appease the northern caliphate as he was frustrated from clinching a Ministerial position.

Nigeria does not have a better mix of technocrat and bureaucrat like El -Rufai.

You have come of age, it would be a pleasure to have you as our president.

Nigeria is ripe for a right wing Nationalist with a proven track record.

Your achievements as FCT Minister and Kaduna Governor speak for itself.

Dont worry about the detractors.......Nigeria has never had a leader that didn't have detractors.

The wailers must wail........

The Midget with bad mind and bad heart.

Been PAYMENT for the job well done. Kai! These emilokan people

will he not be too old by then? If tinubu does not trust him enough work with him in his govt,you think he would like and allow the same man to get the APC ticket, el rufai does not even have enough supporters in the south, he is a controversial person, his presidency cannot fly.

Oye a mọri o!

Same you that claim Tinubu can not become president is started wailing like a fool that El rufia can not. Will a foolish soul like you die if you shut up your foolish mouth because you have no crystal ball into the future.
