The Middle Belt Forum (MBF) has described the immediate past governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-Rufai, as a dangerous politician that must be avoided by President Bola Tinubu.
El-Rufai had in a recent video that went viral narrated why he discriminated against Christians in Kaduna state, stating that Muslims will continue to rule the state and Nigeria.
The MBF, in a statement on Sunday by its National Publicity Secretary, Dr. Isuwa Dogo, said El-Rufai’s comment validated the fear of Islamisation in the country.
The statement maintained that, “There is no doubt that this former governor remains a clear present and future danger to the unity of our nation.
“He is subtly working for a group that is unremittingly and persistently poised at installing the supremacy of the Islamic faith in the corridor of power.
“Both Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should be wary of associating with him. He must not be allowed near the corridors of power.”
The MBF called on security agencies in the country “not only to place the former governor under their radar, but should be invited by the secret police for a chat.”
Dogo said “considering the comments El-Rufai made before the clerics, the man who suffers from an inferiority complex must be considered as a dangerous politician riding on the wings of religion for relevance.
“We hereby denounce El-Rufai’s comments before the clerics as a shameless act of national hypocrisy steeped in the premeditated plot to set adherents of both religions on war path”.
