No fewer than 7,000 people have signed a petition that Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai be barred from the United Kingdom, the European Union as the United States has done.
This is coming amid reports that the United States Government has placed a visa restriction on Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai.
Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, on Tuesday initiated it and was addressed to the UK Parliament, the UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson; Council of the European Union and the European Parliament. The petition shows that El-Rufai has been accused by Omokri of being a threat to the peace and security of Nigeria.
By Tuesday on Change.Org showed that the petition had hit 7,000 as of 11.15 am on Wednesday.
According to Omokri, on December 3, 2016, El-Rufai agreed that he handsomely paid herdsmen who had been accused of killing several persons.
Omokri said: “Since that admission, there has been an intense escalation of the killings of mostly Christians in Kaduna, and on August 25, 2020, suspected herdsmen abducted seven schoolchildren and their teacher from Prince Academy, in Kaduna. They have not been seen or heard of since then.

“On February 6, 2019, he threatened foreign observers, including observers from the EU and UK with death, warning that they would return in body bags should they intervene in Nigeria.
“On July 15, 2012, Nasir El-Rufai said, and I quote ‘We will write this for all to read. Anyone, soldier or not that kills the Fulani takes a loan repayable one day no matter how long it takes.’ This threat has been carried out in Southern Kaduna where there is an ongoing genocide of Christians under el-Rufai’s watch.”
