The 2023 Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has said that former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai should be questioned over his allegation that the Federal Government was paying bandits.
Datti Baba-Ahmed made this remark on Tuesday while appearing as a guest on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.
He also dismissed the rebuttal issued by the office of the National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, regarding El-Rufai’s comment.
“If the so-called office of the National Security Adviser, NSA, would take this statement with levity, then Nuhu Ribadu was never a policeman; he is not a qualified lawyer; he should not be in that office,” he said.
According to him, El-Rufai should be writing statements to the police and to the courts.
Recalls that El-Rufai had alleged that the Federal Government and Kaduna State were paying a monthly allowance to bandits and sending food to them in the name of non-kinetic measures.
