El-Rufai won’t pay ransom if I’m kidnapped, wife says
Hadiza El-Rufai, the wife of Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State on Monday joked that her husband would not pay a ransom if she were kidnapped.
Mrs El-Rufai said this in a social media post after visiting her farm.
“At my farm today. Anyone thinking of ** me should not bother. The man has already warned me that he will not pay any ******,” she tweeted, preferring to have the words ‘kidnapping’ and ‘ransom’ in asterisks.

Kaduna State has been enmeshed in communal clashes, attacks on communities by bandits and more recently kidnapping of students for ransom.
About 39 students abducted at the Federal College of Forestry Mechanisation, Afaka, Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State in early March have not been released.
However, Governor El-Rufai has insisted against negotiating with bandits.
