El-Rufai sues Kaduna Assembly over ₦432bn probe

Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has dragged the Kaduna State House of Assembly to court over the latter’s claim that his eight-year administration allegedly siphoned ₦432bn leaving the state with huge debt liabilities.

El-Rufai filed a fundamental rights suit at Federal High Court in Kaduna against state House of Assembly on Wednesday.

The suit, filed by the ex-governor’s lawyer Abdulhakeem Mustapha, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, challenged the report of the Kaduna Assembly Committee which indicted El-Rufai for alleged corruption.
