A group under the aegis of the Tudun Wada Sustainable Development Association, Zaria, has called on the Senate to clear the former governor of Kaduna State in the Ministerial screening exercise.
The group also said that subjecting a former Governor like El-Rufai whose performance was tremendous to security scrutiny after appearing at the Senate chamber for screening is an unhealthy development.
The Secretary of the group, Nasiru Ladan, while addressing a press conference in Kaduna urged, “the Senate to clear El-rufai without further delay in the interest of peace, fairness and justice.”
Ladan however said that petitions and complaints should be directed to the appropriate quarters.
“That is how it should be,” he emphasized.
Speaking further, the Secretary explained that “there are some nominees cleared and are allegedly on the book of the EFCC for corrupt practices.”
The group therefore urged the Senate to consider the contributions of El-Rufai to national development and clear him.
