2027: I’m not leaving APC – El-Rufai
The former Governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-rufai, has denied speculations in some quarters that he was preparing to abandon the ruling party.
El-rufai, who was cornered by newsmen, Tuesday at the venue of the just concluded National Conference in Abuja, said he was hard on the party to ensure they do the right thing.
When asked whether he was leaving the APC, he said: “I am not leaving the APC. I don’t have such plans.”
Asked further on why he was hard on the party, he said: “No, no, no, I want them to change.”
The former governor was reported on Monday to have taken a swipe at his party, APC, accusing it of abandoning its founding principles and fostering poor leadership.
El-Rufai reported lamented the lack of internal democracy and active party structures within the APC, saying, “I no longer recognize the APC. No party organ has met in two years—no caucus, no NEC, nothing. You don’t even know if it is a one-man show; it’s a zero-man show.”
