Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Civil rights activist and former lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani has given reasons President Muhammadu Buhari should expect more attacks from Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State.<\/p>\n

He was reacting to the outburst of the governor against President Buhari over the presidential election issues.<\/p>\n

In an interview in Abuja on Tuesday, the former lawmaker said El-Rufai rose to stardom on the crest of the President and needed nothing from him any more.<\/p>\n

He wrote: \u201cBuhari should expect more attacks and open and direct insults from Elrufai for three reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl-Rufai\u2019s loyalty to Buhari has expired. He has gotten everything he wanted from Buhari, and Buhari is no more useful to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cBuhari\u2019s power and influence in politics has come to an end; El-Rufai has shifted camp to Tinubu.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl-Rufai is serving Buhari the venom of his real self.<\/p>\n

\u201cBuhari abandoned all his good friends who served and sacrificed for him over the years in Kaduna because of his love for El-Rufai. We warned him against El-Rufai but he ignored; it\u2019s time for Buhari to know that what he incubated and elevated is not a millipede or centipede but a serpent.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have never ever believed that El-Rufai likes Buhari. I have never ever believed that El-Rufai has ever been loyal to Buhari. I knew it was a pretense all the while and I knew that this day would come. El-Rufai simply stooped to get all he wanted from Buhari and now Buhari is of no use to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl-Rrufai spent 8 years praising Buhari and Buhari spent 8 years praising El-Rufai each time he came to Kaduna; Buhari trusted keeping a scorpion close to his groin.<\/p>\n

\u201cTinubu should be careful with El-Rufai. El-Rufai\u2019s preference was Amaechi and not Tinubu. Kaduna APC delegates voted for Amaechi and not Tinubu.<\/p>\n

\u201cTinubu should be careful so that El-Rufai should not drag him to start fighting with people whom he ordinarily should have no reason to fight. El-rufai will create more enemies for Tinubu than friends.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl-Rufai is a friend and beneficiary of the CBN Governor. His fight against cashless policies is not about the common people; it\u2019s about the fear of losing power.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl-Rufai is never a man for the poor and he will never be\u201d, he concluded.<\/p>\n
