A recent family conflict has surfaced within the sons of former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai following Bashir El-Rufai's public criticism of his elder brother, Bello El-Rufai. Bello, representing Kaduna North in the House of Representatives, has been accused by Bashir of substance abuse, hypocrisy, and abandoning their family due to their political disagreement with Nasir El-Rufai and Governor Uba Sani.
In a series of social media posts, Bashir made harsh accusations against Bello, alleging he was using substances and preferring alcohol and cocaine. Bashir also accused Bello of betraying their family by switching allegiances to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) when he realized he was being abandoned by Governor Sani. Bello was initially supportive of Nasir El-Rufai and Governor Sani, but has since distanced himself from Bashir's criticisms, maintaining his support for Sani, whom he considers a political mentor.
The conflict between the two politicians has caused divisions among El-Rufai's sons, with Bashir repeatedly criticizing Sani on social media for his administration's poor performance.
