El-Rufai To Christopher Musa: Apologise Or Face Court Action by adenigga(op): 7:24pm On Sep 07
Former Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, has threatened legal action against the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Musa (retd.), over alleged defamatory remarks made during a recent television interview.

In a formal letter of claim issued through his legal team, El-Rufai demanded an immediate retraction, an unreserved apology, and the preservation of relevant evidence.

The letter, dated September 7, 2026, was issued by the Chambers of Ubong Akpan, acting on behalf of El-Rufai.

El-Rufai’s lawyers complained about several statements allegedly made during the programme broadcast on September 3, 2026, including remarks concerning bandits, killings, demolitions, ransom payments and El-Rufai’s alleged conduct while serving as Governor of Kaduna State.

The solicitors described the statements as defamatory and said the broadcast remains accessible through terrestrial television, satellite television and online streaming platforms.

The lawyers gave the defence minister and his representatives 24 hours to acknowledge receipt and seven days to provide a substantive written response to the demands.

They stressed that El-Rufai reserves the right to pursue any legal remedies available to him if the matter is not resolved.

So Elrufai was deliberately kept away from the opposition which could be premeditated stuff.

The problem with some of you Southeasterners is that you inherit enemies of others whom you really don't know and who have never governed you without even knowing why. Are you aware that the "middlebelt" whom you're doing this posturing for have now moved on from Obi and are lining up to vote Tinubu’s muslim-muslim ticket? Tinubu’s strategy is to replace the Northern Muslim votes that made him president with the middlebelt that was Obi's base in 2023 while hoping it'll be enough. What's the strategy for Peter Obi and which new bloc of votes has he added to his 2023 numbers?

Do you think we down east play that type of politics.

I don't revile hell rufai and I don't like him either. Let posterity judge him according to his deeds.

What exactly are the deeds you speak about beyond the regurgitated soundbites that you just follow the bandwagon to trumpet? What type of politics do you play down east, and if it was that effective, the Southwest wouldn't have been president for 12 years and VP for 8 years while still seeking for 4 more years. Why bother to play at all if you are not playing to win?

We have flourished in the type of politics we play. We have emerged stronger than we were before the civil war.

PO will come and go but we down east will adopt another who has same attributes as PO irrespective of the tribe.

Posterity will be kind on us. We didn't vote for buhari and tinubu who have turned out to be the biggest idiots to have occupied Aso Rock.

Hell rufia should face his music 🎶 and let him dance well well.

Karma is a kinky bitxxxh.

We hear you. There we go again with the self-righteous politics. You never voted for Buhari nor Tinubu but you were not spared from the repercussions of the governance, whether good or bad. Will the unborn generation of the Southeast be exempted from paying the loan of the 15 trillion naira that is being expended on the Lagos coastal road? When you make enemies out of people in politics, always leave room for reconciliation. Otherwise, the ones for whom you have inherited their enemies will pop champagnes on your head as they leave you holding the short end of the stick.

If you say Elrufai's ordeal is penance for making Tinubu president, then I agree with you and I'm sure he is also happy to undergo it so he will come out brand new. But that is his only crime. He was the only person Tinubu practically knelt down to beg and he is also the only person Tinubu is desperate to keep out of the 2027 electioneering. E get why. Tinubu and his lackeys have still been unable to make any charge stick on him so this is no karma. Tables will turn and Elrufai will have his remontada. And if not, the debt will be carried forward. Heads or tail, Elrufai won't lose.

El-Rufai don see shege in the hands of Tinubu.
El-Rufai campaigned like mad for Tinubu.
He danced with Tinubu,
He answered questions Tinubu could not answer in London's Chatham House on behalf of Tinubu.
He never knew that supporting Tinubu is like supporting a tiger which will turn around to maul the supporter.

Middle belt people are still been killed in their homes till date so it makes no sense for them to be voting tinibu giving a few federal appointments to them hasn't been able to change anything.

Nigeria is not a banana republic. It's not enough to just say it, let him prove it in court. Elrufai is currently in custody of the ICPC on corruption charges that they have failed to make stick, if CG Musa has any evidence of killings to prove against Elrufai, Channels TV was not where he should be mouthing it off. He should have simply added to the charges against Elrufai. When the big cat is away, the mice will play. He never found his voice until Elrufai got extrajudiciously incarcerated. That's cowardice if you ask me.
Re: El-Rufai To Christopher Musa: Apologise Or Face Court Action by IMPARTIAL: 9:23pm On Sep 07
Honestly, Musa was childish here. Many people are aware of the antecedents of El Rufai. But can anyone prove them? Musa coming out to make these allegations is unwarranted. He has to prove them. At times let's think before carrying out an action.
Re: El-Rufai To Christopher Musa: Apologise Or Face Court Action by Kalashnikov49: 9:26pm On Sep 07
AMINDA dont GO THERE.

The SE has No beef with the North. El Rufai has alot of vusinesss partners from the SE. We know Mallam..and we know Waziri. Let it stay there. Peter Obi has a good relationship with both men, that is why they are doing everything to gaslight .

The propaganda merchants that painted a scenerio during NADECO pilgrimage have been discovered to be charlatans, betrayers and failures.


Even Waziri has alot of Southern Support more than TINUBU. Dont allow GASLIGHTING derail the focus.


Its still anybody but TINUBU. ..

Elrufai used his mouth to say those things when he was a governor.
He openly claimed to be paying bandits not to kee Southern Kaduna people, he changed the equation of Muslim Christian system to Muslim Muslim, he degraded the southern Kaduna chiefdom and placed them under the Emirates. The man committed lots of evil.
The Adara king Is still fresh in our memories

I concede. Truce. As FCT Minister and governor of Kaduna, Elrufai had people from the Southeast in his cabinet. He personally recommended his friend, Osita Chidoka to Obasanjo who appointed him as Chairman of FRSC.
