Former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai appears at the Kaduna State High Court as his corruption trial continues. Multiple outlets report that he arrives at the court for the next stage of proceedings, after a judge orders the relevant anti-corruption agency, the ICPC, to produce him.
At the courthouse, El-Rufai is seen alongside Isa Kudan, identified by the reports as the African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate for the 2027 election. One outlet frames the case broadly as an alleged fraud matter, while others focus on the court appearance and the connection to the judge’s directive to secure his attendance. The coverage emphasizes the arrival, the presence of Kudan at the court, and that proceedings resume after El-Rufai enters the courtroom. No source in the provided materials describes the merits of the allegations or any rulings made during this specific appearance.
