The Kaduna State Police Command has summoned former governor Nasir El-Rufai and key members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) over allegations of criminal conspiracy, incitement of public disturbance, mischief and causing grievous harm.
The invitation was issued by the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of Criminal Investigation, Zubairu Abdullahi, and involves several prominent figures within the ADC’s Kaduna chapter.
According to the police letter, those expected to appear include:
- Mallam Nasir El-Rufai
- Bashir Saidu
- Ja’afaru Sani (ADC North-West Chairman)
- Ubaidullah Mohammed (aka Mikiya 30)
- Nasiru Maikano
- Aminu Abita
- Ahmed Rufa’i Hussaini (aka Mikiya)
The police request that all named individuals report to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) on September 8, 2025, to respond to allegations made by unnamed complainants.
The letter stated:
“This department is currently investigating the above-mentioned case involving the following members of your party. You are requested to come along with them to SCID to clarify allegations reported against them by the complainants on 8th September 2025.”
However, the ADC leaders have claimed they have not been officially served with the police invitation.
According to them, they only became aware of the matter through posts circulating on social media.
The development follows recent tensions surrounding ADC political gatherings in the state, which authorities claim were held without proper clearance.
El-Rufai and his allies have, however, condemned the actions of security agencies as politically motivated.
