Government Funds Will Not Be Mismanaged Under Me, El-Rufai

Ex Minister of FCT and Governor elect of Kaduna state, Malam Nasir El rufai has said that government funds would not be subject to prodigaity under his administration. He said money will not be shared to groups or individuals no matter who they were. El-Rufai stated this at a reception organised for him by the Kaduna Peoples Association at the Arewa House, Kaduna on Saturday.

According to El-Rufai, the tenure of the PDP both in Federal and State levels has come to an end. He further urged the people to pray more, instead of congratulating president-elect, Buhari and himself because they were inheriting a “bankrupt economy”.

Also, at a prayer session organized for them by the APC Yoruba Political Forum in Kaduna State on Saturday, el-Rufai added that the incoming government needed nothing but prayers from Nigerians. He said, “When people call to congratulate me or come to congratulate me and General Buhari, I always tell them, thank you, but what we need is your sympathy and prayers. “This is because, myself and Buhari are taking over bankrupt governments; it is so bad that the Jonathan administration is finding it difficult to pay salaries.

He also revealed that the debt profile of the state would run into N100bn before the May 29 hand over date. In fact, they had to obtain loan to pay salaries. “In the case of Kaduna State, the Peoples Democratic Party’s government has incurred debt to the tune of over N90bn and this may get to N100bn before May 29. Therefore, what you have done is exactly what we need to succeed,” he lamented.
