El-Rufai refutes claims of defection to PDP
“Please disregard the patent lies and rumors about my political affiliation”
Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has denied claims that he has left the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to join the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In a post on his X account on Sunday, El-Rufai referred to the report as “patent lies,” stating that he has instructed his lawyers to take legal action against those spreading false information.
He wrote, “Please disregard the patent lies and rumors about my political affiliation. I have referred the main peddlers of this fake news for further action by my lawyers.”
Additionally, an aide to the former governor dismissed the claims as the work of mischief-makers.
The aide emphasized that El-Rufai, a prominent figure within the APC, would not switch to the PDP without making such an announcement publicly. Read More
