Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai has said President Muhammadu Buhari has endorsed his re-election in 2019.

In a radio interview, El-Rufai said the President endorsed his bid, after the APC in his state gave him a nod.

The governor added that he would definitely seek re-election with the endorsement.

“It was after I finished briefing him that he (the president) gave me the nod to seek re-election together with my deputy,” he said.

He however said members of the All Progressives Congress can contest against him in the primaries.
