Britain plans to install El-Rufai as VP after Buhari is declared dead – Fani-Kayode

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has alleged that the British Government has concluded plans to have Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, become next Vice President when President Muhammadu Buhari is declared dead.

The former minister made this claim in response to the visit of British former Prime Minister, Tony Blair to the Kaduna State Governor on Thursday, where he pledged to support the state deliver good governance.

But Fani-Kayode, in a series of tweets on his twitter handle, alleged that Blair was in Kaduna State to convey British approval of the plan to have El-Rufai installed as the next VP and eventually become President at the expiration of their administration’s first tenure.

He said, “When Buhari is declared dead the plan is for Osinbajo to appoint Nasir El-Rufai as his VP. Tony Blair has come to Kaduna to convey British approval of that plan. El-Rufai is slotted to take over from Osinbajo in 2019 but God will shock them. When will the Brits leave us alone?

“When will they stop manipulating us and interfering in our affairs? The blood of the Christians and Shiite Muslims of S. Kaduna speaks against El-Rufai and the Buhari administration. Their time is over and their power is broken. The Lord shocked Buhari. He will shock this lot too.”

Fani-Kayode, like Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, had unequivocally dismissed Acting President Yemi Osinbajo’s recent claim that Buhari was recuperating very quickly and in high spirits, as mere fabrication. They have challenged the Federal Government to show video and photo evidence.
