Managing Director of Kaduna State Media Corporation, Ben Kure, has accused former governor of the state, Nasir El-Rufai, of failing to treat the people of Southern Kaduna with fairness.

Kure, who previously served as a media aide to El-Rufai, made the allegation on Monday while responding to questions during an interview on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television.

“What he’s saying is nothing but the peddling of falsehood. Now, let me say something very clear and categorical. Having served and being the director general of his campaign, he (El-Rufai) did not even find us worthy to respect us and then treat our people with fairness.

“I fought my elders to a standstill to ensure that we brought Malam Nasir El-Rufai to government, and all he had to do was to exclude us and then treat the Southern Kaduna people like lepers.

“That was the kind of thing he needed. So he joined the heads of Kaduna State and sharply divided Kaduna State.”
