The presidency has dismissed concerns regarding Nasir El-Rufai's defection from the APC to the SDP, asserting that it does not pose a threat to President Bola Tinubu's aspirations for a second term.
Trustbase News reported that El-Rufai, the former governor of Kaduna State and a founding member of the APC, announced his departure from the party on Monday, citing differences in values and ideology.
In response, DH Bwala, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on policy communication, stated that El-Rufai, who is rumored to have ambitions for the presidency in 2027, cannot challenge Tinubu by aligning himself with those who have previously lost.
Bwala expressed confidence that El-Rufai's "unreasonable ambition is destined to fail."
Bwala shared this message on his X account.
Senior, @elrufai
I read the news today that you resigned from APC to join SDP. Well I have nothing against you because you exercised your constitutional right. However, the MOTIVE is what we would interrogate in the coming days and remind Nigerians that you are not a phenomenal that emerge like a clap of thunder out of a blue sky. We would intellectually remind you that associating with sore losers to unseat the incumbent is not an IDEOLOGY, neither is it PROGRESSIVISM; It is simply an inordinate AMBITION, that is destined to fail.
