Former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has said that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, may be behind the blacklisting of former presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
El-Rufai said this on Friday while responding to questions in an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time.
Recall that United States lawmakers initiated a new bill aimed at increasing accountability for human rights abuses in Nigeria.
The legislation, Nigeria Religious Freedom and Accountability Act of 2026, contains provisions for potential sanctions against Fulani militias and former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso.
He said, “The APC may be behind it because Kwankwaso has refused to move to the APC, and there are rumours that he will move to the ADC.
“In fact, I cannot think of anyone else because, look, 12 northern states implemented Sharia.
“The first state to do so was Zamfara. I thought Zamfara should be listed there if at all anyone is to be blamed for this Sharia fiasco.
“So Kwankwaso is not one of the governors that you would say was a fundamentalist.”
