“Who The Cap Fit – Bob Marley & The Wailers is one of my favorites from the 1970s. Enjoy your Sunday with the song and lyrics that are timeless.” he said.

Many think the tweet is a cryptic message about the ministerial role El-Rufai could not land in President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet.

“Cryptic but not so encrypted,” Muktar Bagudo, @Muktees tweeted in response

“A lot said in a song about friendship and betrayal. Idan Allah Yayi ma mutum, bayadda aka iya dashi,” Thuraya Ahmed @Surayya_ahmad tweeted

El-Rufai had been nominated as one of 48 ministers to make up Tinubu’s cabinet.

However, the senate threw out the nomination of El-Rufai on security grounds.

According to sources, the former governor who had also served as FCT minister had been tipped for a new energy ministry which was to focus on gas as a major source of revenue for the country.
