Ex-Governor Nasir El-Rufai says former President Muhammadu Buhari endorsed his dumping the ruling All Progressives Congress for Social Democratic Party, following the manner incumbent President Bola Tinubu treated.

Mr El-Rufai said this in a recent interview with BBC Hausa.

“I met with him (Buhari) on Friday and told him about my consultations in preparation to leave the party. I sought his blessing and prayers and told him about the new party I was ing. And he gave his blessing, prayers and wished me success,” the politician said.

Asked if he dumped the APC out of bitterness that he was not appointed as a minister by Mr Tinubu, Mr El-Rufai said he did not lobby for appointment but was begged to the government.

Mr Tinubu “publicly begged me in Kaduna to come and work with him,” said Mr El-Rufai.

The former Kaduna governor explained that “even at that, I did not accept his request until we sat privately to discuss the issue.”

Mr El-Rufai added, “He (Tinubu) said power problem has become an issue to Nigeria’s development, and successive leaders have failed to solve the problem.

“He (Tinubu) sought my to achieving his dream of becoming the president who solves the power problem. It was in the light of this challenge, I accepted to consider working with him. I thought he was serious.”

However, the politician said he did not regret ing Mr Tinubu’s presidential ambition, “but I am disappointed.”

Presidential spokesperson Daniel Bwala dismissed Mr El-Rufai’s defection as an inordinate ambition to unseat Mr Tinubu, which would fail.

Two useless names - El- Rufai and Buhari that have contributed to keeping Nigeria as a retrogressive and killing field.

Lol.

You can take this to the bank for cash out. Buhari can never be part of that.

Why is Elrufai deliberately messing with the opposition's psyche?

Short man devil

Kuriki!!

Rest a bit please...

This statement alone shows that the midget is working for Pablo, two old thieves who think Nigerians are not smart... It's just reeking of how Tinupoop made his infamous statement of its my turn during the build to the last election making it look like Tinupoop and Buhari were not in good . They are just working with the sense and brains of zombies which is what APC as a party is good at.






It's only halfwits that will take statements from El Rufai, Rhino Omockry, Ruben Agbati, Onanuga serious

Technically, he did not say Buhari ed him, he said Buhari gave him his blessings and wished him well.

If PO goes to Buhari today to tell him he wants to contest in 2027, Buhari will also wish him well. So nothing really to it.

And I dey tell you say na lie. Buhari would rather remain neutral.

Btw, all you people that are falling for Elrufai's emotional taunting, make una go watch his interview with channels before the election and see how he has has been playing games with the opposition

Would it surprise you if Buhari denied it tomorrow?

Face your region for once, open thread about Bokoharam, banditry, Fulani herdsmen that have ravaged the North and killing people in the south. Expose them, your traditional leaders and Indigenes collaborating with bandits, create a thread on how Al-majiris can be taken off the streets, how the North can catch up with the south. Help yourselves for once. Don't only devote your life worshipping Atiku and scavenging Twitter for gossips or poke nosing into southern affairs.

And this goes to your fellow Atikuloosers as well ;

Hell Rufai seems to have nothing going for him outside politics.

atiku4President:
Two useless names - El- Rufai and Buhari that have contributed to keeping Nigeria as a retrogressive and killing field.

But Buhari mentored Tinubu.
Tinubu is following Buhari's legacy

Good observation.

After everything Mallam El Rufia did for APC, look at how APC treated him. That was not fair of them to do that to him.


Now, he has gone to another party [sdp], people are saying all sorts of things against him even the former party he belonged to.

Why didn't the former party say all those things about him when he was in the party? why now he has ed another party?



Human beings are abysmal.
