The immediate past governor of Kaduna state, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has denied decamping to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) or any other political party as being rumoured.
El-Rufai, however threatened legal action against those he called peddlers of fake news.
The former governor who wrote on his verified X page asked the public to disregard the report, “Please disregard the patent lies and rumours about my political affiliation. I have referred the lead peddlers of the fake news for further action by my lawyers”
In a telephone interview earlier with one of the former governor’s aides who did not want his mention described the rumoured defection of El-Rufai to any political party as false and pure hand work of mischief makers.
The aide said, “It is the hand work of mischief makers. I don’t want to talk about the social media post by mischief maker but the report is false. The former governor did not join PDP or any other party”
Some online platforms and social media users reported on Sunday that former governor Nasir El-Rufai has returned to PDP to contest for presidential election in 2027.
The report further claimed that Rl-Rufai had collected PDP membership card from Ungwan Sarki, Kaduna North local government area. END
