You are a tribalist. You can make your point without abusing Yoruba men. Other tribes are also guilty of this.

Awol1:
It has started with what the lawyers did to him.

Time is coming when all known bigots will never smell any national position.

Kaduna state governor, Nasir El- Rufai on Thursday he never lobbied the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) to be selected as one of its speakers at its annual conference.

Recall that the NBA had earlier withdrawn its invitation to El-Rufai via a tweet on its official Twitter handle following protests from some lawyers.

However, in a statement by Muyiwa Adekeye, Special Adviser to the Governor on Media, El Rufai said the action of the NBA will not stop him from contributing to national discourse.

The statement reads “When lawyer friends requested Malam Nasir El-Rufai to accept the invitation of the NBA to participate in a panel discussion on national identity, he accepted as part of his commitment to having a national conversation and the evolution of a national consensus”

“NBA platform or not, these worthy conversations must continue. He will continue to make his voice heard on the things our country needs to do for its progress”.

While the decision about who speaks at its event is clearly the NBA’s, Malam El-Rufai wishes to make clear that he did not seek the platform and is not agitated that he has one less speaking engagement”.

“However, the circumstances of the last few days warrant some comments. That a professional organisation has elected to endorse a one-sided narrative on a profound national issue is something that its members may wish to reflect upon”.

“For an association, whose bread and butter is about justice to make a ruling based on the stridency of people who lampoon judicial processes against certain individuals without hearing the other side is odd".

"It bears noting that in its response to pressure, the NBA leadership has signaled an unfortunate embrace of injustice, unfairness, absence of fair hearing and total disregard for the rule of law”.

The defamatory statements in the petition is another matter entirely, and they will get the appropriate response”.

“Malam Nasir El-Rufai has taken several actions on the security, institutional and technology fronts to address the legacy of violent strife in the state. He is the governor that made permanent military and police bases a reality in southern Kaduna, after close to 40 years of waiting. He is the governor that set up a Peace Commission to nudge communities to embrace their responsibility to live in peace and harmony”.

” He has done this with equality of concern for all residents, not just those with access to the media and who are able to mobilise sentiment even when they are part of the problem. His investments in building a constituency for peace, anchored on the rule of law, respect for the citizenship rights of everyone and an embrace of the obligations of a common humanity will continue”.

“Those who have chosen to pretend that it is only Kaduna State that is experiencing the security challenges in North-West, or that it is only one part of the state that is affected can enjoy the illusion”.

Malam El-Rufai remains focused on the tough and hard work of stopping the bleeding and the needless breaking of bones”.

See who dey talk.

Awol1:
Plz remove Elrufai!

Any ticket he's on would be viewed as Boko Haramic.

Elrufai right now, will never win any national election.

nairalee:
Mr. 6 Months Rocket Science Just give us light. All these talk does not affect/concern majority of Nigerians

A petition to stop the governor from attending the Annual General Conference which was started by a lawyer, Usani Odum, had garnered over 3,150 signatures on Change.Org as of 4 pm on Thursday.

The UN has remained blind to the atrocities going on in Nigeria.

Coronavirus84:
Nice coup. This is exactly what will still happen again in Nigeria. The greedy politicians are just looting and relooting us without fear of the unknown.

SaiOba:
APC is a disgrace.. Just take a look at the way they are gradually turning the democracy of this country to mockery and to see that some of us are even jokingly giving them thumbs up is a more bigger shame..

How did we even get here ?

One thing I'm sure of, the table will turn one day. I can't just imagine the damage that could have been done before the table turns. God bless my country

RichBoy247:
PDP does not want us to know the content, they just want us to implement the fraud they put together. Useless nitwits.

ImDStar:
He's not a progressive Nigerian, I believe if he truly wants the country to progress, [b]he would've at least gone through the reports [/b]and start implementation.
We're just moving round the circles as usual.

Ceegar01:
I think Buhari is trying his best just that he inherited governance from an incompetent otuoke man who messed this country up with his gang of thieves

This not a matter of being a sour looser, APC and PDP are same. Have any of them rejected members of the other party from joining ranks, No. This same posture PDP is today was same APC was before winning the 2015 election and has also continued to be in that position today, always blaming the PDP but forgetting that the major actor in PDP are now APC, and nothing has changed for the better. Since non of the two parties have strong and strict Ideology, let no one come here to tell stories over the other. Our yesterday is gone, today we have, to make a better tomorrow.

Maxymilliano:
Is Hope no longer a supreme court Governor ?

janedonez:
You can't take away the orderly and organized politics played by Enugu especially with the pdp. Apc_enugu need to double their efforts if they really want to take over power. Congratulations to them,

Pimpmaride:
Useless president

Useless police


Useless governor of KD

Useless things.....


Police didn't disrupt herds men and bandits killing innocent people but they can disrupt harmless civilians..


The boss that ordered such command will lose his family to insurgency too


The governor dt gave order will lose his family sooner or later to insurgency too..


Rubbish things
