President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been urged not to swear in Nasir El-Rufai as a Minister by a group of Quranic Memorisers and Reciters.
The director of education at the Sheikh Dahiru Usman Bauchi Foundation, Sheikh Sidi Aliyu Sise, pleaded with Tinubu not to swear in unjust politicians.
He claimed that El-Rufai’s nomination and National Assembly review were unfair to Qur’anic reciters and memorizers.
He said that while he was governor, El-rufa’i oppressed Almajirai under his direction.
He urged Tinubu to oversee the nation with an eye toward justice.
Sheikh Sidi pleaded,
“We demand for justice as a result of injustice, harassment, trauma, and difficulties encountered by our disciples, teachers and many Qur’anic scholars, when he evacuated our innocent pupils from the House of Maulana Sheikh Dahiru Usman Bauchi in Kaduna to unknown destination.”
He claimed that by swearing in El-rufai as minister, Tinubu would be endorsing the wrongdoing they endured while El-rufai was a governor.
