Defamation Case: Governor El-Rufai Testifies In Court (photos)

The Union newspaper had on June 2015 published a story alleging that El-Rufai declared assets worth N90billion, including 40 mansions scattered across the country. The governor described the story as “untrue and malicious” shortly after signing the writ of summons.

“Let them come and prove that I am as rich as they claimed,” he said. ” I hope I lose the suit because if I have all these money, I would do a lot more for Kaduna State with the money.” he said.
