El-RUfai was misled - Associate, Muktar Isa-Hazo

Muktar Isa-Hazo, a former deputy speaker of Kaduna State's Assembly, states that associates of former governor Nasir El-Rufai did not abandon him after he joined the ADC, but remained politically aligned. He insists he is still an ally of El-Rufai, despite political differences ahead of the 2027 elections, and blames El-Rufai’s family for misleading him during his detention. Isa-Hazo also criticizes individuals who claim to support El-Rufai while using his name for personal gain, and notes that some of El-Rufai’s associates have returned to the APC, causing division among supporters.
