Former Kaduna State governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has claimed that he could be arrested at any time by the APC-led Federal Government.
His allegation came against the backdrop of the arrest and ongoing trial of former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami. El-Rufai, now a prominent figure in the opposition African Democratic Congress, ADC, made the allegation in an interview on BBC Hausa Service yesterday.
He also accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, of mounting pressure on politicians to either defect to the party or remain within its fold.
The former governor, who has in recent months intensified his criticism of President Bola Tinubu’s administration and the APC, the platform under which he governed Kaduna State for eight years, said some of his associates had already been detained.
“Four people we worked with in Kaduna have been arrested; so it’s only a matter of time before they come for me too,” he stated.
