The APC chieftain expressed worry about the party's stance on El-Rufai's challenges, which the Kaduna State House of Assembly was probing.
Igbokwe in a Facebook post on Thursday, August 8, said:
"I do not know why the leadership of APC Nigeria thinks that a scholar with a huge brain, a bold thinker, a fearless leader, a facilitator, a key player, a team player, and an organizer like Mallam El Rufai can just be ignored as if we do not know how we got here."
Kaduna assembly probes El-Rufai
The Kaduna State House of Assembly's ad-hoc committee set up to investigate the administration of El-Rufai recently submitted its report to the house.
Henry Zacharia, the chairman of the committee set up to probe all finances, loans, and contracts awarded during El-Rufai's administration, gave an account of their findings on Wednesday, June 5.
According to Zacharia, most of the loans El-Rufai's administration obtained were used for purposes other than those for which they were obtained. He added that in some cases, due processes were not followed.
