An activist, Steven Kefas, has recounted his alleged abduction and unlawful arrest under El-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna State, in 2019.

Kefas, in a statement on his X account on Saturday, narrated how he was allegedly tracked, abducted, and unlawfully detained by plainclothes police officers he claims were sent by El‑Rufai.

He alleged that El-Rufai’s men followed him from Port Harcourt and arrested him without an arrest warrant. According to him, the officers immediately seized his phones to prevent him from making calls.

“They also instructed the Mini Okoro Police Station, where I was detained, not to allow anyone to see or speak with me,” Kefas said.

He added that his situation changed around 8 p.m. after he pleaded with a policewoman, whom he described as elderly and compassionate, to help him contact his family.

“Kefas said the officer used her personal phone to call his brother, a move he believes saved his life and prevented what he described as a “Dadiyata model” outcome.

Kefas further alleged that when the officers returned around 5 a.m. on May 9, 2019, to transport him to Kaduna State, they appeared surprised to discover that news of his abduction had spread across the media.

“They had no choice but to take me to Kaduna alive,” he claimed.

The activist said he later endured harsh experiences in detention, noting that details of what happened in prison would be shared at a later time.

His revelation comes as El-Rufai recently alleged a plot to abduct him from Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. According to El-Rufai, the incumbent governor of the state, Uba Sani, and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, met and decided on his abduction.

However, a presidential spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, has said that the former governor, who is a leading opposition figure in the African Democratic Congress, would be probed.
