Well, Peter Obi told journalists that Nasir El-Rufai has no business in Anambra and that he shouldn't be there. He said that he cannot go to monitor an election in Katsina and therefore, El-Rufai has no business being in Anambra.
Then Obi should never step foot in Katsina since he has no business there either. He should also know that he is a clown who doesn't know that Elrufai is from Zaria, Kaduna state and not Katsina.

Now does Peter Obi have the right to determine whether a Nigerian citizen has the right to be at any given place in the country or does the constitution?
Forget all thie talk about how it was ordered from Abuja. It was ordered by Obi himself.
Now if Elrufai decides to violate the constitution and pay him back in his own coin Ibos will run the internet wild.

Thumbs up to Nasir for being the bigger man.
May Obi lose and lose he will
The questions that should be asked is...

who was the president and which party did the president belong to in 2013?

Who does the DSS take orders from?

Which party did Obi belong to in 2013?

Why did elrufai initially say in 2013 that he was arrested by the DSS based on orders from abuja(implying it was the president)
only to change his words and accused obi as the one who sent dss to detain him?

Why is this unnecessary accusation coming up when obi decided to contest as president in 2022?

Why did elrufai sue dss for detaining him and when he finally got a judgement in his favour in 2018,who did the court ask to pay him the sum of 2million for wrongful detainment?

When you have answered these questions 'objectively' without an ounce of partisanship, you will know who is saying the truth!

2) It's quite hilarious when people refer me to politicians. Once upon a time I created a thread about a businessman that had trouble with the law. Someone quoted me and threatened to create a post about a politician. What the heck is my business if you create a post about any politician? How does that concern me?

On one hand, they claim that the Governors are powerless chief security officers of the States that cannot give orders to law enforcement officers without approval from Abuja.

Then on the other hand they claim that a Governor ordered SSS to chase El Rufai out of Anambra.

This is the chaos called Nigeria. It is on autopilot.

2. The other were written on a site that has no other article opening except those on this thread... They sold a dead blogsite for this nonsense

3. How does this make naira land front-page? Naira land is compromised. Are the pictures of the flooding not important or are the bad roads not important.

4. Elsacamfi you are now a governor unfortunately I don't hear how your state has been transformed into little Dubai?
Still a terrorist nest

Elrufai is the loser, not Obi because he is the one always crying like an infant, If Elrufi has the fact that it was Obi that ordered the SSS to rest him as he always alleged, why didn't he include Obi when he want to court against the SSS? You questioned Obi's constitutional right, that he has no right to "determine whether a Nigerian citizen has the right to be at any given place in the country" Determine and Questioning are two different things what Obi did was to question whether Elrufi has the necessary permissions to be in Anambra state during election time he (Obi) has that right. Nigerian election laws made it clear no movement of citizens during an election day unless you are going to cast your vote, You are an INEC Official, Security Personals, INEC Accredited Monitoring term, and Accredited journalist. My question to Obi haters has any of you went to INEC to enquire whether Elrufi was accredited to be in Anambra state on that election day?

Ekejoestar:
None of what you posted up there is fact, absolutely none.

All I see there is name calling and hearsay as El Rufai's source,

EDUCATION

is this not the same Anambra state that the FGN accredited as having the best education system in Nigeria during Obi tenure? Or is there another Anambra state.

SECURITY

Before Obi came to power ask anybody about the security situation of OPP IWEKA, and also ask them to tell you of what Obi did when he assumed office, how he sanitized the whole security architecture in Anambra state.

ECONOMY

I am saying all these because I lived in Anambra state Onitsha to be precisely when he was in power, Anambra state was the economic powerhouse of eastern Nigeria where we have Onitsha main market which is the largest Market in west africa, it was Obi that made business to conducive for us to have that market and others like Ngbuka, Ochanja,

INFRASTRUCTURE

Was none existence before Obi came to power and he came and did his best in terms of infrastructure, most of the bridges and roads he built is still standing till date, go and verify.

Obi's only fault was that he wanted to reduce the cost of governance of which the vampires at Anambra house of assembly was against and they came up with different wild figures to paint him black but the results of his achievements are there for those who want to read and think for themselves to see.

I see what you guys are doing, the same machinery that maligned this man credibility that led to his impeachment has been reactivated again but this time una come late.

Shut your dirty mouth up. I live in Anambra when Obi was Anambra state governor. Anambra was one of the worst state when it comes to security then and d insecurities still remains till date.

The origin of the battle between El-Rufai and Peter Obi.

Everybody knows that there has often been clashes between El-Rufai and Peter Obi, but what is the cause of these clashes? Today I'll take you back to the beginning.

First I'm going to give a summary, then I will quote and repost all the old posts in subsequent posts.

Summary

2012

Mallam Nasir El-Rufai had a newspaper column in 2012 and he used his column to analyse Nigerian budgets. He analysed the Federal budget and the budgets of various states. There wasn't any problem until he analysed the budget of Anambra State.

El-Rufai used "facts and figures" to back his claim that, although the Government of Anambra was trying to grow the revenue of the state, it wasn't doing enough. He showed that Anambra was one of the poorest states in Nigeria and he christened the budget a budget of "Misplaced Priorities". I will post El-Rufai's full analysis in subsequent posts below.

This analysis angered Governor Peter Obi. He said that El-Rufai had probably never been to Anambra and was therefore not qualified to analyse Anambra's budget. He said that the analysis was an insult to all Igbos and that Anambra could not be one of the poorest places in Nigeria. He concluded that El-Rufai was speaking out of ignorance. I will post Governor Obi's reaction in subsequent posts.

2013.

The 2013 Anambra governorship election was scheduled to hold on Saturday, November 16th. Governor Peter Obi was backing the APGA candidate, Willy Obiano, the APC candidate was Chris Ngige, the PDP candidate was Tony Nwoye and the Labour Party candidate was Ifeanyi Ubah.

The APC set up a situation room in Awka and it was headed by their deputy national secretary, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai.

What is a situation room? Political parties usually have agents at the various polling units and collation centres and the job of these agents is to make sure that there is no rigging and to gather evidence of malpractice for the political party. They are allowed to view sensitive materials, to make sure that they have not been compromised and they monitor the various stages of the election process. The agents can also give the party a real time idea of whether they are winning or losing (based on the results from the various polling units)

Political parties set up situation rooms where they'll receive reports from their agents in the field in real time. They also have analysts in these situation rooms who can analyse the data that's gotten from the agents and advise the candidate accordingly.

The staff at the situation rooms during a governorship election are usually from out of state. This because they need to monitor the situation right from the release of sensitive materials in the early hours of election day until the final result is released and this means that they need to be at the situation room for two or three days straight. Meanwhile the candidate needs every vote that he can get, so he wouldn't want potential voters locked up in the situation room.

Nasir El-Rufai told the media (on the day before the election) that he noticed some SSS operatives following him and he also stated that they were at his hotel. He said that they tried to prevent him from going downstairs to eat dinner at the hotel's restaurant, but he pushed past them. El-Rufai was being interviewed by a journalist when SSS operatives showed up seized the tape recorder from the journalist and deleted the interview.

The SSS told El-Rufai that they were at the hotel to protect him. He said that he came with his own security and that he did not need any protection from them. The SSS also told journalists that they were there to protect El-Rufai and that Anambra was a dangerous place.

What has all these got to do with Peter Obi?

Well, Peter Obi told journalists that Nasir El-Rufai has no business in Anambra and that he shouldn't be there. He said that he cannot go to monitor an election in Katsina and therefore, El-Rufai has no business being in Anambra. This statement, which mirrored what Governor Obi said during the budget clash, made some people to believe that he was behind El-Rufai's detention. However, there is absolutely no proof that Governor Obi ordered El-Rufai's detention.

I'm going to post the statements of El-Rufai, the SSS and Peter Obi below.

Since then there have been regular clashes between both men, as you can see from the screenshot on the 6th post below.

The only question I want to ask the OP is that if El-Rufai has the required qualification to analyse state budget? If no then he has no business with Anambra or any state budget for that matter...

Secondly, Peter Obi been in APGA, an opposition party to the government at the center don't have the power to detained rufai or whatever.
