The governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-Rufai on Monday, disclosed how Peter Obi, former governor of Anambra and presidential candidate of Labour Party for the 2023 Presidential Election, ordered his arrest in 2013.
He disclosed this in a meeting of Arewa Joint Committee organised for presidential candidates.
El-Rufai who narrated how the incident happened said, “In 2013, I went to Anambra state, as an official of the APC, to witness the bye-election for governorship,” he said.
“Your next guest, Peter Obi, was governor. He got me arrested and detained for 48 hours in my hotel room. Now, I am the governor of Kaduna state. And he is coming to Kaduna.
“In addition to the police and the SSS, I have one mechanised division Nigerian Army here, if I need to arrest and detain anyone. But we are northerners. We are civilised. We don’t do things like that.”
