Ex-Councilors Demand Immediate Arrest of El-Rufai  Over Alleged Security Claims

...Say he's a security threat 
The National Forum of Ex-Councilors of Nigeria has called for the immediate arrest of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, over allegations bordering on national security.

The group made the demand at a press conference held in Kaduna on Monday, February 16, 2026.

National President of the Forum, Hon. Amb. Auwal Kasim Hassan, described El-Rufai as a threat to national security, alleging that the former governor had confessed to tapping the phone of the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.

Hassan said the allegation by El-Rufai that he was marked for death through food poisoning allegedly orchestrated by the Office of the National Security Adviser was too serious to be ignored.

According to him, the gravity of the claims warrants immediate action by security agencies to prevent what he described as attempts to whip up public sympathy from opposition elements.

“The allegation that he was marked for food poisoning by the Federal Government is weighty and cannot be treated lightly. We are calling on relevant security agencies to immediately arrest him and investigate these claims,” Hassan said.

He further disclosed that the forum was prepared to institute direct criminal charges against El-Rufai through its legal representatives to compel him to provide evidence to substantiate his allegations.

The forum also reiterated its support for the Renewed Hope administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, urging the President not to be distracted by what it described as the “antics” of the former governor and his associates.

THE NEED TO STRENGTHEN THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT OF THE NIGERIA POLICE FORCE FOR EFFECTIVE JUSTICE DELIVERY By Hamza Nuhu Dantani, Esq. Constitutional Lawyer and Rights Activist. Every day across Nigeria, police officers risk their lives to arrest armed robbers, murderers, kidnappers, rapists, and violent criminals. Yet, time and again, these same criminals walk free, not because they are innocent, but because the system fails at a time it matters most: the courtroom. At the heart of this systemic failure lies a silent crisis—the grossly neglected legal department of the Nigeria Police Force. Understaffed, underfunded, and overwhelmed, this vital arm of law enforcement is struggling to prosecute crimes, defend civil suits, or even appear in court. The consequences are grave: lost cases, emboldened criminals, and a justice system that increasingly serves the powerful while frustrating victims and ordinary citizens. This is not just a capacity problem; it threatens public safety, ...
