Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, was among the few invited to speak at the recently held annual conference of the Nigerian Bar Association. However, El-Rufai’s invitation raised an uproar from members of the NBA, Nigerians and human right groups like the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project who faulted the invitation of the Kaduna State governor as a guest speaker at the conference.
The Kaduna State governor has had so many controversies tied around his neck in recent times. Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, who spoke against El-Rufai’s invitation, said that the governor lacked the moral right to speak at the conference. Falana also noted that given that El-Rufai had been known for flouting court orders, so how could a man of such character be a speaker at a conference which promoted the rule of law.
In all these instances, a very great lesson has been taught and it is pertinent for El-Rufai and others to learn from it.
