Osuntokun warns El-Rufai against targeting Ribadu

Former NAN MD Akin Osuntokun cautioned ex-Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai against directing transferred aggression at NSA Nuhu Ribadu. Osuntokun described El-Rufai's comments as a dangerous obsession lacking justification, alleging they deflect scrutiny from El-Rufai's own Kaduna tenure issues. He accused El-Rufai of deploying a 'Gobbellish strategy' to confuse Nigerians about alleged wrongdoing, questioning links between Ribadu and a June 2024 Kaduna House of Assembly report accusing El-Rufai's government of mismanaging N423.2 billion. EFCC has invited El-Rufai and former officials for questioning.
