Bashir El-Rufai, son of former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, publicly threatens his elder brother, Mohammed Bello El-Rufai, also known as Bello El-Rufai. According to reports, Bashir posts the threat on X, stating, “I will destroy you,” and continues to attack his brother who serves as a member of Nigeria’s House of Representatives.
Both outlets describe an ongoing public rift between the two brothers. The accounts frame the latest message as part of a broader dispute rather than a one-off exchange, with Premium Times characterizing the situation as “at war” and Daily Post Nigeria emphasizing the threat and the renewed nature of the confrontation. Neither report provides independent verification of wrongdoing or details of any specific incident beyond the public social media statements.
Overall, the outlets agree that the confrontation takes place online and centers on Bashir’s direct threat to Bello, while they differ mainly in wording and framing rather than core facts.
