The Kaduna state chapter of the All Progressives Congress has debunked claims that the governor of the state, Nasir El Rufai is eyeing the seat of President Muhammadu Buhari.
This allegation was made by Senator Shehu Sani who represents Kaduna Central at the upper chamber of the National Assembly.
While the party stated that El Rufai is “loyal to the APC and the great work that President Buhari is doing”, it further added that Sani on the other hand is only pretending to love President Buhari as he has attempted to discredit the president in the past.
In a statement released by Salisu Wusono, the publicity secretary of the state state chapter of the party, Nigerians were urged to ignore the ‘irresponsible utterances’ of the senator while pointing out that it was statements like that that got him suspended.
The statement said in part; “This is a man who seems unable to believe his good fortune at riding on the Buhari wave to become a senator.”
“He hardly waited to arrive in Abuja before enlisting as an agent of the forces who began to plot for 2019 before they were even sworn in following the 2015 elections.”
“Sani tried to rubbish President Muhammadu Buhari by describing the anti-corruption crusade as political… now pretending to love Buhari by needlessly attacking Kaduna state governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai on behalf of those funding his immature politics.”
“Sani’s masters, who defied the APC for their selfish ends, know that Nigerians are aware of those whose 2019 calculations made them impervious to reason and party discipline.”
“The APC Kaduna state is proud of the vigorous and disciplined way Malam Nasir El-Rufai is governing Kaduna state in line with the manifesto of the APC.”
“In education, health, agriculture and general governance reforms, El-Rufai is making strides. He has demonstrated an exemplary focus on the responsibility the people of Kaduna state has given him. His loyalty to the APC and the great work that President Buhari is doing is visible for all.”
