VIDEO: El-Rufai threatens Peter Obi, Says...

By Tolulope Oke

Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai claims that he would have taken revenge for the treatment the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, meted out to him while he was in the state to observe an election.

In a viral video, El-Rufai claimed that Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s current presidential candidate, had placed him under house arrest for 48 hours in Anambra state during the election while he was speaking to the Arewa joint committee in Kaduna State.

Asserting that he had the First Mechanized Division of the Army in Kaduna, he said I would have also detained the former governor, who would be in the state for his 2023 presidential campaign in a few days.

El-Rufai, however, said he will not arrest Obi because Northerners are civilized people.

He said, “Before I finish, I want to say that I went to Anambra state for my party to monitor the election, Peter Obi who was a Governor put me under house arrest for 48 hours.

“Today, I am the Governor of Kaduna state and he’s coming to Kaduna to campaign and apart from other security agencies, I have the First Mechanized Division of the Army in Kaduna but I will not arrest him because we Northerners are civilized people.”
