A former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has visited ex-military Head of State, Yakubu Gowon.

El-Rufai visited Gowon at his residence in Abuja on Tuesday.

The meeting is coming shortly after the All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain met with leaders of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, for the second time.

The second visit further fueled speculations that the former governor is planning to dump the APC.

El-Rufai was pictured at the Abuja residence of Senator Abubakar Gada, along with SDP chairman Shehu Musa Gabam and other party leaders.

Also reported to be present at the meeting were Senator Teslim Folarin, APC, gubernatorial candidate for Oyo State in the 2023 general elections, and Senator Nazif Suleiman, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from Bauchi State.

The meeting at Gada’s home in Abuja on Sunday night came after El-Rufai hosted a Ramadan iftar at his Abuja residence.

Those at the Ramadan iftar include the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, Kashim Ibrahim-Imam, Shehu Musa Gabam, and others.

El-Rufai also visited Gabam at the SDP secretariat.

I'll maintain that Kwankwaso has more political value than El-Rufai.

In fact, Buhari was the most influential politician from Northern Nigeria. People worshipped him because they thought he was a man of integrity. Now that he has proven that he has nothing to offer, the north has no replacement for him.

As it stands now, Southern Nigeria has more influential politicians than the north. El-Rufai is an egoistic noisemaker like Kwankwaso. Na when he contest for presidential election and get 500k votes e go rest.

In North, their politics is about Ideology. Atiku, El Rufai, Sanusi Lamido Ideology can never win then any election in the north

SoNature:


I am sure I understand the relationship between Atiku and El-Rufai because the former is a moderate Muslim while the latter is an extreme Muslim with a bigoted attachment to his Fulani tribe.

But one thing I know for certain is that no northern politican of today can command the level of respect and influence Buhari commanded.

I assure you that none of them can get up to 2 million votes if they contest in an unknown party, only Buhari could command that influence. Buhari was the next after Muhammed in the north in his prime.

In North, after Buhari is Kwankwanso, others are just regular politicians with no fan base
