Immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, had told the leaders of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, that power is transient and would end one day.
El-Rufai, a member of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, opposition coalition, passed the message on Thursday in Abuja at the public presentation of the memoir of former Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed Adoke.
Peak Newspaper Nigeria reports that the book has its title as ‘OPL 245: Inside Story of the $1.3 billion Nigerian oil block’.
“I appeal to those in power today to remember that their time will soon end and other people’s time will come. Power is transient,” he said.
Peak Newspaper Nigeria reports that the 26-chapter book on the OPL 245, also known as Malabu oil deal scandal, centres on a 2011 agreement in which Royal Dutch Shell and Italy’s Eni paid $1.3 billion to acquire Nigeria’s deep-water oil licence.
The oil block is believed to hold nine billion barrels of crude.
