FCT, Abuja – Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has lambasted his successor, Governor Uba Sani, for accusing his administration of diverting a whooping sum of N423,115,028,072.88.
El-Rufai said the financial figures were concocted to indict him and his administration.
The former commissioners who worked under El-Rufai stated this at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday, July 9.
They alleged that the report lacked merit and was put together by Governor Sani and his team to discredit him and his administration, Vanguard reports.
As reported by The Guardian, the eight El-Rufai commissioners rubbished the report, describing it as âdecreed a figure and declared it!â
El-Rufai said the Ad-hoc Committee alleges that more than half of the N811.6bn revenues generated funds were âsiphonedâ but it cannot even decide on the amount amount.
Meanwhile, TimesNow.com.ng reported that there was a new update regarding the case between El-Rufai and the Kaduna Assembly over alleged N423bn theft.
According to the reports making the rounds online, the court on Monday, July 8, adjourned the hearing of the case to July 17, following a notice filed by the assembly’s counsel.
