'He's on colos, feeds on cocaine' - El-Rufai's son attacks elder brother
Bashir El-Rufai accused his elder brother of drug use and betrayal as the family feud deepened, while vowing to target the All Progressives Congress.
- On Saturday, Bashir El-Rufai, son of former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai, launched a public attack on his elder brother, Mohammed Bello El-Rufai, a House of Representatives member, in a series of posts on X.
- Tensions stem from the rift between El-Rufai and his successor, Governor Uba Sani, whom Bello maintained loyalty to while Bashir consistently criticized the administration. El-Rufai remains in detention for alleged corruption during his tenure as Kaduna State governor.
- Bashir alleged that Bello uses 'alcohol and cocaine,' claiming his brother opportunistically shifted to the African Democratic Congress after his standing with Sani deteriorated. He accused Bello of hypocrisy and betrayal regarding family loyalty.
- After the acerbic posts, followers urged the son of El-Rufai to 'settle out of court and social media,' highlighting the family's deep division. The public airing exposes divisions over their father's political legacy and detention.
- Vowing to 'acquire power' for the sole purpose of targeting the All Progressives Congress, Bashir declared he would not forgive those who attacked his family. He claimed he would remain resolute even if El-Rufai emerged from detention and chose to forgive.
