Hadiza El-Rufai, the former First Lady of Kaduna State, has publicly addressed her son, Bashir El-Rufai, following his tweet criticizing aides to President Bola Tinubu. Bashir, who is known for his outspoken views on social media, recently made a statement questioning the competence of Tinubu’s aides, sparking debate and drawing attention from both political circles and the public.
The Criticism and Public Reaction
Bashir El-Rufai’s tweet criticized the performance of President Tinubu’s aides, suggesting that they were underperforming and not living up to expectations. His comments quickly went viral, with many expressing support for his stance, while others condemned the tweet as disrespectful and damaging. The post also attracted attention due to Bashir’s prominent family background, as his mother, Hadiza, is a well-known figure in Nigerian politics.
Hadiza El-Rufai’s Response
In a move that surprised many, Hadiza El-Rufai responded directly to her son’s tweet, questioning his decision to publicly criticize Tinubu’s aides. As a former First Lady and someone with deep political ties, Hadiza is no stranger to the complexities of Nigerian politics, and her response reflects concern over the potential repercussions of such public statements. She emphasized the importance of strategic and diplomatic approaches when engaging in political discourse, particularly when addressing leaders and their teams.
A Family Divided on Politics?
The exchange between Hadiza and Bashir has raised questions about the dynamics within the El-Rufai family regarding political alignment and expression. While Hadiza has traditionally been an influential figure in her own right, Bashir has cultivated a reputation for being vocal and at times, critical of the political establishment. This contrast has sparked discussions about differing views within Nigerian political families and the delicate balance between personal opinions and public influence.
Calls for Constructive Political Discourse
The incident has also ignited broader conversations about the role of political aides, the expectations of those in power, and how criticism should be delivered in a respectful and constructive manner. Supporters of both Bashir and Tinubu’s administration have weighed in on the debate, advocating for a more cohesive and professional approach to addressing issues within the government.
