New Emir Appointment: PDP represents all that is evil and wrong about our nation - El-Rufai

Following the congratulatory message and the withdraw of the same by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the yet to be appoint new Emir of Kano as attested by the Kano state government, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai has accused the PDP of circulating falsehood do to the party's hatred for the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Malla Lamido Sanusi Lamido, who probably may be the new Emir of Kano.

According to El-Rufai, 'The PDP out of fear and hatred of my brother Sanusi Lamido Sanusi began circulating the falsehood that someone else had been appointed Emir of Kano.'
"Then they congratulated the Emir that had not been selected by the constituted authority. Earlier, they had enlisted several PDP sympathizer-traditional rulers to put pressure on Governor Kwankawaso to discourage him from selecting SLS, who was recommended on merit among the aspirants by the kingmakers."

"May the Almighty Allah Guide Governor Kwankwaso in choosing a wise and honest leader that will build on the legacy of Late Ado Bayero. In my opinion, that person is my brother SLS. But that is my opinion only which I am entitled."

"They have now withdrawn their false and contrived congratulations. PDP represents all that is evil and wrong about our nation. May Allah separate Nigeria from this evil, divisive and poverty-inducing party."
