El-Rufai Finally ‘Named’ Minister

Nigerian internet users have ridiculed former Governor Nasir El-Rufai, playfully dubbing him the “reggae minister,” after he cryptically expressed his feelings of betrayal. They responded by sharing lyrics from a Bob Marley song that touches on the theme of betrayal.

El-Rufai had posted lyrics from Bob Marley’s song ‘Who the cap fit,’ which talks about being betrayed by close friends and allies. This post on Sunday led to netizens mocking him on social media, connecting it to his unsuccessful bid for a ministerial appointment.

Senator Shehu Sani, a political rival of El-Rufai, humorously commented, “I have turned him into a Rastafarian and reggae artist…yeah man.”

Various users on platforms like Facebook and Twitter joined in the jest, with some suggesting El-Rufai had become the “Minister of Reggae artist and Rastafarians” due to the episode with the ministerial appointment. Others used playful names like “El Reggae Rufai” and “Wa gwan Rasta El Rufai” to poke fun at the situation.

Several netizens pointed out the irony in El-Rufai employing Bob Marley’s lyrics for his lamentation, given his past political strategies and actions. Some implied that his current predicament was a consequence of his own actions.
