I’LL BUY YOU A FIRST-CLASS TICKET IF YOU CAN ENTER AMERICA – OMOKRI TAUNTS EL-RUFAI
A former presidential spokesman, Reno Omokri, has thrown down the gauntlet to former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, daring him to prove he is not under travel restrictions by entering the United States.
In a fiery post on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, Omokri claimed El-Rufai secretly abandoned his plans to travel abroad for further studies because he is allegedly barred from leaving the country.
He further accused the former governor of fabricating a narrative that President Bola Tinubu was planning to arrest him to mask his real predicament.
‘El-Rufai abandoned his plans to travel abroad for further studies because he has been under travel restrictions. He does not want to admit it, which is why he tried to cover his embarrassment by lying that he abandoned his travel plans because President Tinubu wants to arrest him, and he is not a coward.”
The explosive allegation has reignited speculation over El-Rufai’s recent silence and absence from international engagements.
While the former governor has yet to respond, political observers are watching closely to see if he will take up Omokri’s challenge.
