A group under the umbrella of Pan Nigerian Young Professionals and Youth Leaders Council, has said that former Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, is on a vindictive mission against the President Bola Tinubu Administration.
The group accused the former governor of seeking to sow seed of discord between the President and the National Security Adviser, Mal. Nuhu Ribadu.
President General of the group, Comr. Nwisabari Bani Samuel, in a statement while addressing the media in Abuja on Thursday, said Nigerian youths are solidly behind Nuhu Ribadu and appreciate the progress made by him in securing Nigeria.
He said Ribadu, has demonstrated unwavering commitment to integrity, transparency and good governance throughout his illustrious career as pioneer Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Samuel, who is also spokesman, Chairman’s Forum, National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), said it is worth noting that the origins of these accusations that the NSA spoke about Mr. President while he was EFCC Chairman, can be traced to ulterior motives, including false whistleblowing directed at the then EFCC boss and possible external interference.
He urged Nigerian youths to stand resolute with Ribadu, as he is committed to continuing the work of safeguarding the lives and property of all Nigerians.
The Rivers State NYCN Chairman therefore urged the media and the public to focus on the progress being made and the positive impact of his security initiatives, rather than being swayed by unfounded accusations.
