Former Kaduna Governor El-Rufai calls Reno Omokri a “political mercenary” and shares his old post warning against a “drug baron” in Aso Rock.
A former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, publicly mocked Reno Omokri, a former Presidential media aide, on Monday, amidst ongoing tensions between Omokri and supporters of President Bola Tinubu.
According to Peoplesmind, the conflict escalated when El-Rufai endorsed an article by prominent columnist Farooq Kperogi, which accused the President of favoring his ethnic group in appointments to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
In the piece titled “Tinubu’s Buharisation of the NNPC,” Kperogi criticized the President’s perceived “Yorubacentric” approach to leadership at the NNPC, drawing parallels to the favoritism shown to Northerners during the previous administration of Muhammadu Buhari.
