Nasir El-Rufai, the governor of Kaduna State, says he would have retaliated against what Mr. Peter Obi, the former governor of Anambra State did to him while monitoring an election in Kaduna State.
El-Rufai, who was speaking to the Arewa joint committee in Kaduna State, claimed in a viral video that Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s current presidential candidate, placed him under 48-hour house arrest in Anambra state during the election.Infomation Guide Nigeria
He stated that he would have also arrested the former governor who would be in the state for his 2023 presidential campaign in the coming days, emphasising that he had the First Mechanized Division of the Army stationed in Kaduna, which is capable of carrying out the arrest.
