El-Rufai warns disloyal Kaduna National Assembly members

Governor Nasir El-Rufai has warned National Assembly members from the state of disloyalty, even as he reaffirmed his support for Senator Suleiman Othman Hunkuyi representing Kaduna North Senatorial District at the upper chamber.

The Governor dismissed those purporting to recall Senator Hunkuyi, and warned them to desist from tarnishing the image of respected persons and trying to create divisions.

In a statement signed by his spokesman, Samuel Aruwan, the Governor said Senator Hunkuyi is a pillar of the movement that achieved victory for the APC in Kaduna State.

He noted that:  “Senator Hunkuyi is a respected representative of our people with a distinguished record of service in formal and informal positions of leadership”.

The governor therefore warned those who are planting the seed of discord and trying to cause confusion in the State to desist from such act, saying, “this is a man that deserves every respect, those playing the childish game of a futile recall bid on Senator Hunkuyi should desist.

El-Rufai said: “In testing times, Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi has proven to be a loyal and disciplined party man. He stood firm for the APC and its directives when others were flouting the wishes of the party in selecting the National Assembly leadership in 2015.”
