Kaduna Assembly Inaugurates Committee to Probe El-Rufai
POLITICS DIGEST- The Kaduna house of assembly has set up a committee to examine the books of the state under the administration of Nasir el-Rufai, immediate past governor of the state.
The committee has been tasked with looking at loans, grants, and project implementation from 2015 to 2023 — the period in which el-Rufai held sway as governor.

On March 30, Uba Sani, governor of Kaduna, said his administration inherited a debt of $587 million, N85 billion, and 115 contractual liabilities from the el-Rufai administration.
Speaking during a town hall meeting, Sani also said he has not borrowed “a kobo in the last nine months”.
He, however, said the huge debt burden is eating deep into the state’s share of the monthly federation allocation.
