Governor of Kaduna State in northern Nigeria, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has come in for serious bashing by Nigerians after a video where he lambasted former President Goodluck Jonathan for granting a presidential pardon to a convicted former governor, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, resurfaced online.

In the video, El-Rufai, a staunch supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari, is heard villifying Jonathan, accusing him of sending a wrong signal in the fight against corruption by pardoning a convicted person.

However, Nigerians dug up the old video following Buhari granting pardons to former governors Joshua Dariye and Jolly Nyame of Plateau and Taraba States, who were convicted and sentenced to prison for embezzling their state funds.
