JUST-IN: Kaduna Assembly Speaker gives update on alleged plot to Impeach El-rufai
Agency Report
The Speaker of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Hon. Yusuf Zailani, has debunked rumours of a plan to impeach Governor Nasir El-rufai.
It can be recalled that a report went viral last week alleging that the state assembly had concluded plans to remove the Governor and replace him with his deputy.
However, in a statement on Sunday signed by his media aide, Ibrahim Danfulani, Zailani disclosed that the report was false.
“The attention of the Speaker of Kaduna State House of Assembly has been drawn to a report of purported impeachment moves against Gov. Nasir El-Rufai over corruption allegations circulating on social platforms.”
“This is simply the handiwork of opposition and enemies of progress of the relationship between the legislative arm of governent and the executive under the able leadership of Malam
Nasir el-Rufai, apparently to create crises between the legislative and the executive and in order to deny the good people of Kaduna State the dividends of democracy they are benefitting courtesy of the good working relationship between the executive and the legislative.”
“The report which also said the relationship between the governor and the Speaker of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Rt. Honourable Yusuf Zailani, has been frosty for quite some time now is also nothing but the figment of imagination of the writer and perhaps their sponsors.”
“It is also untrue that the state lawmakers are currently investigating the expenditures of all the Ministries, Agencies and Parasatals of the state government. I, therefore, wish to state categorically that the entire report is maliciously concerted to misinform the general public and should be disregarded in its entirety.”
