El-Rufai, Governor of the killing fields of Kaduna State.

The Assembly urged security and anti-corruption agencies to commence the investigation and prosecution of El-Rufai and some other indicted members of his cabinet

Former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai has been recommended for investigation and prosecution over alleged misappropriation of N423 billion.

The ad hoc committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly to investigate all finances, loans and contracts awarded under former governor El-Rufai made the recommendation in a report it submitted to the House

Presenting the report during plenary on Wednesday, the chairman of the ad hoc committee, Henry Zacharia, said that most of the loans obtained under the El-Rufai’s administration were not used for the purpose for which they were obtained, while in some cases, due process was not followed in securing the loans.

Receiving the report, the Speaker of the Kaduna House of Assembly, Yusuf Liman, said that a total N423 billion was embezzled by the El-Rufai’s administration while leaving the state with huge liabilities.

The committee, therefore, recommended the investigation and prosecution of El-Rufai, some other indicted members of his cabinet by security and anti-corruption agencies for abuse of office through the award of contracts without due process, diversion of public funds and money laundering as well as plaguing Kaduna State into heavy debt

The committee also recommended the immediate suspension of the Kaduna State Commissioner of Finance, Shizer Badda, who also served in the same capacity under El-Rufai’s administration, as well as the chairman of the state universal basic education board.

It also recommended thorough investigation of some key appointees of the last administration by appropriate law enforcement and anti-corruption agencies.

The committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly was tasked with the assignment of examining loans, grants and projects implementation from 2015 to 2023 during which El-Rufai served as governor of the state
