This man had a disturbing way of making money. Whenever bandits abducted someone, he would get the victim’s relatives phone number, call them using a disguised voice, claim their relative was in his custody, and demand ransom.
This was not the first time he had been arrested over similar crime.
But as they say, let’s hear the story from the horse’s mouth.

“If you look carefully at Nigeria today, you will realise that government officials have stolen so much money that they no longer know where to keep it. That is why they have now turned to investing in real estate, which is one of the reasons houses have become so expensive across the country. It is time to vote them out.”

There is something revealing about the argument that keeping Nasir El-Rufai in detention could weaken the African Democratic Congress. It raises a fundamental question about the relationship between political power, individual liberty and the strength of democratic institutions.
Hon. Bello El-Rufai has offered a striking explanation of what he believes is driving the political controversy surrounding his father.
“There’s this fear about Mal. Nasir El-Rufai, because even his enemies will never say he’s not intelligent, he’s hardworking, he’s bold, he’s fearless.”
Bello further suggests that some political actors believe keeping El-Rufai detained would prevent the ADC from functioning effectively.
That is a serious allegation. It deserves examination, not automatic acceptance.
Nasir El-Rufai is an experienced political figure who served as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and Governor of Kaduna State. His years in public office have made him a prominent and often controversial participant in Nigeria's political debates.
His supporters admire what they describe as his administrative discipline, willingness to take difficult decisions and readiness to confront powerful interests.
His critics have also raised important questions about aspects of his record in government. Both perspectives belong in any serious assessment of his political legacy.
But the immediate issue is bigger than whether Nigerians admire or oppose El-Rufai.
No political figure should be detained merely because of their influence, political associations or capacity to challenge an incumbent administration.
Equally, political prominence must never confer immunity from legitimate investigation or prosecution.
The distinction is essential.
Where criminal allegations exist, investigators must act within the law, disclose the applicable grounds for detention and respect judicial oversight. The accused must have a meaningful opportunity to challenge the allegations and defend themselves.
Where allegations of political interference arise, they should be examined through credible evidence rather than speculation.
The ADC, like every opposition party, must be free to organise, recruit members, develop policies and compete in elections without unlawful obstruction.
Its institutional strength should also depend on more than one personality.
Bello El-Rufai's remarks therefore raise questions worth asking: What are the legal grounds for his father's continued detention? Have applicable court orders been respected? And what evidence, if any, supports the allegation that detention is being used to undermine opposition activity?
These questions deserve clear, verifiable answers.
Nigeria's democracy is strengthened when political competition remains open, criminal justice remains independent and citizens can distinguish legitimate law enforcement from political persecution.
The test is not whether El-Rufai is feared, admired or criticised. It is whether the same constitutional protections apply to him as to every other Nigerian.

The chances of Obi winning Kano in 2027 are like me, a Hausa/Fulani man, travelling to Anambra to purchase a piece of land to establish a business. It is almost impossible.
The 2027 presidential election in Kano is going to be very dramatic because some people have high hopes and confidence that may lead to serious disappointment in the end, especially our Obidient brothers, who think the 997,000 votes Kwankwaso secured in 2023 will be transferred to Obi in 2027.
No, it doesn't work that way.
Nobody has total control over Kano votes when it comes to presidential elections.

Shettima’s hypocrisy stinks. A man who is known to disrespect Jonathan, Atiku, and Osinbajo.
Here is Atiku Abubakar calling out Shettima for the disrespect. Atiku said, "I cannot answer Kashim because he is disrespectful and that is not the attitude of an arewa man, I am older than him; I have more working experience than him" - AA
You can call him Bola. If you like, you can call him Adekunle. But the truth is, he is the President of Nigeria. I will respect Atiku and call him former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. I will not follow suit with the maverick Babachir Lawal to call him Kachalla. Atiku, who has contested the presidency for the 8th time, is no Abraham Lincoln. He's more of Odinga Odinga.

BREAKING: ADC presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar explains how his administration would tackle insecurity in Katsina State if elected president in 2027.
For millions of Nigerians, the next election should not be reduced to slogans, personalities or party colours. It should be about one simple question: which leadership team has the clearest, most credible plan to improve the daily life of the ordinary citizen?
The Atiku–Amaechi ticket is presenting itself as an alternative built around economic recovery, jobs, infrastructure, education, security and a government that is more responsive to citizens.
Those claims deserve serious scrutiny.
Nigerians should ask: What will they do about the cost of food? How will they reduce the pressure on small businesses? What is their plan for electricity? How will they create jobs for young people? What will they do differently on insecurity? How will they make education and healthcare more affordable? And most importantly, how quickly can ordinary Nigerians realistically expect to feel the impact?
These are the questions that matter.
The common man does not need another season of beautiful speeches without measurable outcomes. He needs an economy where work can sustain a family. He needs a country where a young graduate can find opportunity without knowing someone in power. He needs a market where prices are not rising faster than income. He needs roads, electricity, security and public institutions that actually work.
That is the standard every ticket, including Atiku–Amaechi, should be held to.
2027 should be a contest of ideas, competence, records and practical solutions.
Every candidate should be challenged.
Every promise should be interrogated.
Every economic proposal should be tested.
Every claim should be measured against the reality Nigerians are living through.
If Atiku and Amaechi are offering themselves as an alternative, then Nigerians deserve to hear clearly what they intend to do differently, how they will pay for it, how quickly results can be delivered, and what measurable benchmarks citizens should use to judge them.
Because the hope of a better Nigeria cannot remain a slogan.
It must mean cheaper living costs, stronger businesses, better jobs, safer communities, reliable power, quality schools, accessible healthcare and dignity for the ordinary citizen.
2027 should belong to informed citizens asking hard questions and demanding better answers. 🇳🇬
