Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Shehu Sani, a socio-political commentator, has advised the Senate against confirming former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai to be minister.<\/p>\n

Sani warned that El-Rufai should not be cleared if Nigeria wants peace to reign.<\/p>\n

Describing the former governor as playing god while he was governor, Sani said El-Rufai was now at the mercy of the Senate.<\/p>\n

Tweeting, he identified the former governor as a religious extremist and a fanatic.<\/p>\n

According to Sani: \u201cThe Unconfirmed Ministerial nominee; The Imp who was intoxicated with power, and who arrogantly played God is now at the mercy of those wielding power.<\/p>\n

\u201cA religious extremist with a fanatical political agenda should have no place in the seat of power if that nation desires peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Senate had refused to confirm El-Rufai alongside two others due to security issues.<\/p>\n
