I was talking to security operatives not El-Rufai: NSA Monguno
Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) says the National Security Adviser Babagana Monguno, did not accuse Governor Nasir El-Rufai of divulging classified information.
The Head, Strategic Communication, ONSA, Zakari Usman, said in a statement on Friday.
He said the NSA’s comment during a news conference on Thursday was misrepresented by a section of the media.
“Governor Nasir El-Rufai spoke about the security agencies, saying we know who they are, where they are. Again, that is the danger. When you start talking too much, you give away a lot,” Mr Monguno had said shortly after meeting with the president alongside other service chiefs at the Presidential Villa.
The ONSA, however, denied Mr Monguno said had denied talking about about Mr El-Rufai.
