Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has denied misappropriating N423 billion in public funds, and accused National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu of directing the Department of State Services to arrest him without a warrant when he landed in Nigeria from Egypt.
El-Rufai made the statements on Arise News Prime Time on Friday.
“I have been in public service for a long time,” he said. “I was adviser to Abdulsalam Abubakar. I have been DG of BPE, minister of FCT, and Governor of Kaduna State. I swear to God I have never taken a penny I am not entitled to.”
