Former Nigeria President, Goodluck Jonathan has said that he gave Mallam Nasiru Ahmed El-Rufai the sum of N200 million as part of his contribution to his campaign for the governorship of Kaduna state which he eventually won.
The former President, who is still bitter about alleged disparaging remarks which Governor El-Rufai made about his government on the issue of ecological fund, insisted that the governor is just being hypocrite.
“He benefited from me when he asked me for money as part of my contribution for his Campaign funds.
“I gave Nasir El-Rufai a whopping sum of N200 million through Nenadi Usman, he should swear by Quran that he never collected money through Mrs. Usman.
“He sent one of his aide whom I learnt is now his political adviser to collect the money.
“If he continues with his LIES against me. I will instruct more about him to be exposed.
Jonathan said that El-Rufai is bitter with him “because I refused to appoint him as a Minister when I took over the Government.
“I still have all his CV & Email correspondence when he was begging me for an appointment and at the same time blasting President Muhammadu Buhari at the tail end of my Government.” [myad]
