Uba Sani, Ribadu no longer my friends – El-Rufai

Tamarauemi Ebimini

A former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai has said that he is no longer friends with his successor, Uba Sani and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.

El-Rufai, who stated this on Monday while featuring on ARISE TV, said they were friends at some point, but they were no longer friends at the moment.

His words: “Look, Uber Sani has been my friend for many years, but he is not my friend anymore.

“For me, the word friendship is a very important concept. God gave us our relatives. He chose our relatives for us, we have no choice, but thank God, we can choose our friends.

“A friend is someone that has some fidelity, some ethical and moral standards and will be there for you when you need him, not when there is time to party or enjoy.

“Those that are my friends know that I will be there for them when they need me, and I will rise and defend them. That’s what I call friend. Uba Sani is not my friend, (Nuhu) Ribadu is not my friend. They were my friends at some point, but not anymore.”

El-Rufai added that the allegation of corruption leveled against him by Sani was untrue, saying despite the anti-graft agencies investigating him and his appointees, nothing incriminating had been found against them.
