Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna state said so many things against the Peoples Democratic Party/Goodluck Jonathan’s led government when ex-president Goodluck Jonathan’s government was leading the country. One of his criticisms was when Goodluck Jonathan granted a pardon to Diepriye Alamieyeseigha (former governor of Bayelsa State). Nasir El-Rufai said, “Nobody said you should eradicate corruption, but don’t go around pardoning convicted people that have been convicted by regular courts for corruption, and then you say you are fighting corruption.” “You are sending the wrong signal not only to those engaging in corruption but also to young people who see that there is a reward for being corrupt. That is what Jonathan is doing. Tell me which government before him has pardoned convicted corrupt criminals”. Now our point is this: Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna state is a strong member of the All Progressives Congress. He has access to the presidency and before any decision is taken, he is supposed to know. President Buhari recently pardoned convicted corrupt criminals who looted and destroyed the economy of Nigeria, which is against the will of the majority of Nigerians. APC/President Buhari’s led government was elected with the belief that they were going to reduce or eradicate corruption in the country based on their campaign promises. But today, President Buhari’s led government is unable to keep to its promises, which makes the government incompetent. The Viewers Corner News team is appealing to Professor Yemi Osinbajo, the vice president of Nigeria, not to have Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna State as his running mate, assuming he is nursing the ambition to do so because his leadership capability is questionable. Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna state is not consistent, and any leader who is not consistent can not lead his people properly. We suggest that Professor Yemi Osinbajo should work with Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State as his running mate. Governor Babagana Zulum is a great leader, very compassionate, accommodating, and very competent. He understands the needs of all Nigerians, but the likes of Governor El-Rufai of Kaduna State cannot be trusted. This is the truth. Take it or leave it.
