Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, on Monday named Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo as the current chairman of a group he called Nigerian Association of Short People.
According to the diminutive governor, with Osinbajo holding the position of the Vice President, “we are represented at the highest echelons of governance.”
El-Rufai shared the message on Twitter while reacting to a video of an interview he granted popular comedian Teju Babyface in 2010.
In the video shared by Babyface, El-Rufai while admitting his diminutive stature, jokingly claimed that he used to be the Secretary-General of Nigerian Association of Short Men. The governor also recalled how the pretty ladies he had eyes on while growing up, were always taller than him.
However, he admitted that at the end, he got lucky to find his wife who he said he is an inch taller.
While replying to the video on Monday, the governor wrote;
“Yes…..I remember this @Tejubabyfacetv interview in 2010…..how time flies….HE VP Osinbajo is the current chairman of the Nigerian Association of Short People….so we are represented at the highest echelons of governance! Thanks Teju. – @elrufai.”
