The Centre Against Injustice and Domestic Violence (CAIDOV) has called on the Department of State Services (DSS) to urgently investigate and arrest former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, for what it described as a confession to tapping the telephone lines of the National Security Adviser (NSA).
In a statement issued on Saturday by the Executive Director, Gbenga Soloki, the group said the alleged action by el-Rufai raises serious national security concerns and must not be treated lightly by security agencies.
CAIDOV insisted that security operatives should “move swiftly to trap him even if Nigeria will divide,” stressing that no individual is above the law regardless of political status or influence.
According to the group, el-Rufai has “succeeded in putting himself into trouble” and should be made to face the consequences of his alleged actions. It accused the former governor of displaying what it called an “alarming level of arrogance,” warning that personal disagreements with top security officials should not lead to actions that could undermine national security.
The group further claimed that the alleged development has “exposed whatever may have been planned underneath,” urging authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to determine the full extent of the matter.
As of the time of filing this report, el-Rufai had not publicly responded to the allegations, while the DSS has yet to issue an official statement on CAIDOV’s demand.
The call adds to growing political tensions surrounding recent exchanges involving key political actors and security institutions.
