El-RUfai was misled – Associate, Muktar Isa-Hazo

Former deputy speaker of Kaduna State House of Assembly, Alhaji Muktar Isa-Hazo, has clarified that his associates did not abandon former Governor Nasir El-Rufai, despite claims to the contrary. In an interview with Leadership, Isa-Hazo, who is a staunch ally of El-Rufai, refuted the allegations made by the ex-governor. Isa-Hazo claims that his associates remained with him politically, even as El-Rufai joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.

He asserts that El-Rufai was misled by those close to him, and that the limited access to information during his detention made it difficult for him to understand the political landscape outside the facility. Isa-Hazo maintains that El-Rufai has not been abandoned and that the former governor's associates are following their individual political choices.
