Former Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has filed a lawsuit against Kaduna State House of Assembly member, Henry Marah, and Channels TV.
The former governor is seeking N3 billion in damages over alleged defamatory comments made during a TV interview.
According to the writ of summons filed at an FCT High Court on July 11, 2024, El-Rufai’s counsel, A.U. Mustapha (SAN), claims that the June 5 “Politics Today” interview on Channels TV, titled “Investigation of El-Rufai Administration,” was “malicious, unwarranted, without justification, defamatory, and greatly injurious” to El-Rufai’s reputation.
The former governor alleges that Marah made false and damaging statements about his borrowing of N423 billion during his tenure as governor between 2015 and 2023, claiming that the funds were unaccounted for and borrowed without due process.
El-Rufai is seeking N3 billion in damages jointly and severally against Marah and Channels TV for the injury, embarrassment, and distress suffered due to the alleged defamatory publication.
This lawsuit comes after El-Rufai filed an N1 billion suit against the Kaduna State House of Assembly’s Ad-Hoc Committee on Investigation of Loans, Financial Transactions, Contractual Liabilities, and Other Related Matters, alleging a lack of fair hearing in the probe into the N423 billion loans.
