The immediate past Governor of Kaduna State, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has garnered support from a coalition of Islamic clerics and organizations in his state for a potential appointment as a Minister in the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Despite facing criticism from some clerics in Bauchi State, El-Rufai’s efforts to enhance Qur’anic education during his tenure as governor have been lauded by the endorsing group in Kaduna.
Criticism from Bauchi Clerics:
One notable initiative was the establishment of a committee dedicated to mainstreaming Qur’anic education.
