El-Rufai Boys, Coalition of Arewa Youth Groups Raise Alarm Over Alleged Plot to Poison El-Rufai and Demand Reviewed Bail Conditions
ABUJA, NIGERIA — June 17, 2026 — Organized by El-Rufai Live, El-Rufai Boys & Girls, Nasiriyya, and the Coalition of Arewa Youth Groups, this briefing addresses the over 100-day detention of Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, former Governor of Kaduna State and FCT Minister. Despite court orders granting him bail and his voluntary cooperation with security agencies, his continued custody raises severe questions about democracy and the rule of law in Nigeria.
Key Issues Raised
• The Poisoning Plot: Public allegations by political commentator Timi Frank suggest a plot within security circles to poison El-Rufai and release him in a condition leading to his death. The coalition demands this claim be taken seriously.
• Double Standards in Justice: The groups point out stark disparities in how the law is applied. While El-Rufai faces prolonged detention under unrealistic bail conditions, other former governors facing massive corruption allegations—such as Yahaya Bello (alleged ₦80 billion), Ifeanyi Okowa (alleged mismanagement of trillions), and Rochas Okorocha—enjoy freedom, actively contest elections, or find political accommodation within the ruling APC.
• Human & Democratic Cost: Beyond the deep personal toll on El-Rufai's health and family, the coalition warns that using state instruments to target opposition figures, particularly from the Arewa (Northern) region, sends a chilling message that competence is punished while others are shielded.
The Coalition's Demands
1. Immediate and Transparent Investigation: An independent and public inquiry into Timi Frank’s allegations regarding the plot to poison El-Rufai.
2. Review of Bail Conditions: An urgent judicial review to grant realistic, achievable bail in accordance with fundamental rights.
3. Guarantee of Safety and Medical Care: Clear, verifiable assurances protecting El-Rufai's life and health while in custody.
4. End to Selective Persecution: A halt to the targeted harassment of opposition leaders, especially those from the Arewa region.
5. Respect for Court Orders: Full compliance with judicial orders granting El-Rufai access to medical care, family, and legal counsel.
Call to Action
The coalition stresses that this situation is a litmus test for whether Nigeria remains a country governed by law or by political whim. They call upon the international community, diplomatic missions, and human rights organizations to monitor the case closely, asserting they will not stop demanding justice.
