How El-Rufai Is Exporting Banditry To South - Gov. Akeredolu

Akeredolu said this while reacting to a comment credited to El-Rufai on anti-open grazing law.

El-Rufai had described the anti-open grazing laws being signed by some of the southern governors as unrealistic.

Responding, Akeredolu, in a statement titled 'Anti-open grazing: El-Rufai's attack on southern governors devious, a hysteric ploy to externalise banditry', issued by the State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Mr Donald Ojogo, said;

"From all indications, Governor Nasir El-Rufai, if he was properly quoted and his views not misrepresented, is struggling hard to export banditry to the South under an expressed opinion that is laced with mischief.

"Perhaps, it is apt to state clearly that the likes of Governor El-Rufai are already in a hysteric 'mode' of escalating and indeed, externalizing banditry, especially as the military onslaught against criminal elements and other terror variants suffices in the North.

"For emphasis, any such comment like that of the Kaduna Governor, if indeed he made that statement, merely seeks to encourage anarchy under the guise of resentment of a law by affected stakeholders.ÔÇØ
