Osinbajo is the current chairman of Short People Association of Nigeria – Governor El-Rufai jokes

A Twitter post by popular comedian Teju Babyface. 

 In the short video from a 2010 interview with the comedian, Governor El-Rufai said he used to be secretary-general of the short people association.

He also shared some challenges he had before getting over not being tall enough.

The Kaduna state Governor said in the interview; 

“I used to be the secretary-general… at a point at my teenage years, in my early 20s I had big issues with my height because you know all the pretty girls turn out to be taller than me.

“But with time, I got over it. I managed to get a pretty and intelligent woman to marry who was an inch shorter than me.”

Reacting to a video of the interview after it was shared by Teju Babyface, Governor El-Rufai jokingly described Vice President Yemi Osinbajo as the current chairman of the Nigerian Association of Short People. 

He tweeted; 

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
