‘Emir Sanusi is with us’ – El-Rufai’s family rejects Kperogi’s claim of neglect
The family of the embattled former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasiru El-Rufai, has dismissed insinuations that the Emir of Kano, Mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II, has neglected El-Rufai in his hour of need. Responding to an article written by Professor Farooq Kperogi, titled “Sanusi and the Betrayal of El-Rufai”, in his column in The Atlanta […] ‘Emir Sanusi is with us’ – El-Rufai’s family…
The family of former Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasiru El-Rufai, has firmly denied suggestions that the Emir of Kano, Mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II, has neglected Nasiru during a difficult time. Asia Mohammed Ahmad, Nasiru's wife, addressed Professor Farooq Kperogi's article titled "Sanusi and the Betrayal of El-Rufai" on her Facebook page.
She emphasized that the Emir is their father figure and that they always respect him. Asia asserted that HH (His Highness) is indeed with them, and his support has nothing to do with the recent post by Nasiru. Her husband, Bello El-Rufai, also backed his mother, stating that the Emir remains their father and that he truly stands by them.
Several commentators on the Facebook post expressed their belief that the Emir's role in the case is minimal, as he is ultimately controlled by the governor. One commenter, Mallam Muhammad Bello, dismissed Kperogi's article as "simply goofing," arguing that an Emir like Muhammadu Sanusi II cannot interfere in Nasiru's legal matters.
