Bello, the eldest son of ex-Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has debunked rumours that operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, raided his residence in Kaduna and found monies in different currencies.
The rumours claimed the EFCC discovered $800 million, N700
billion cash, and N1 trillion worth of drugs at his residence in Kaduna.
In a statement on Wednesday, Bello described the allegations
as “false” and a calculated effort to distract his public service.
He also denied that he does not own a house in Kaduna and
made it clear their family home is in Unguwar Sarki.
Bello’s statement read: “My constituents that I represent
know what would happen if I was blessed with such figures.
“For those sponsoring these ignorant attacks, I assure you
that we will continue to serve the people, and we will continue to enjoy how it
annoys them; adding quality, frank, and honest representation is here to stay
in Kaduna North.
“The use of fake news to manipulate public perception and
instigate discord, stressing the attempt to connect him to illicit activities
through unfounded allegations was not only defamatory but an affront to the
principles of justice and fairness.”
