El-Rufai stated these claims on Saturday in Abuja while delivering a goodwill message at a public lecture with the theme, ‘Weaponisation of poverty as a means of underdevelopment: A case study of Nigeria’.
The event was planned to honour Rotimi Amaechi, the former governor of Rivers State, as he celebrated his 60th birthday.
El-Rufai said, “Nigeria is in its biggest trouble since 1914, and that is why we are together working and conspiring to build a coalition to take Nigeria back on track because it is off track.
“It has turned to this level because we have allowed bandits, not the ones in the bushes, but the ones in the urban area, called the urban bandits, to take over leadership.
“I believe that the problem that we have is that we just get incompetent people, and we hand over leadership to them. Most of them don’t really know what to do. They just know how to grab power but don’t know what to do with it.”
