Prof. Udenta Udenta, a fellow at the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, says that former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai should not be kept in jail forever while the investigation is going on.
On Wednesday, Udenta said this during an interview on Arise Television’s “Prime Time” show.
He told them to leave El-Rufai alone, saying that the former governor should be presumed innocent and that they can look into things without him being in jail.
The professor also said that they could take El-Rufai’s passport and keep him from moving around freely.
“You can’t keep a man in jail forever while you look into something.” He said, “That is not fair.”
Since he got back from Egypt, it has been said that the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has been holding El-Rufai.
He was arrested for wiretapping the office of Nuhu Ribadu, the National Security Adviser (NSA), and then taken to another court in Kaduna State.
