Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, on Monday, dismissed claims that he failed to support President Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election, stating that he has moved on from such allegations.

Tinubu, backed by the All Progressives Congress, won the election against the main opposition candidates — Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Peter Obi of the Labour Party.

El-Rufai, a key APC chieftain, has been at the centre of political discussions, recently asserting that his views on governance would remain unchanged regardless of his role in the Tinubu-led administration.

On Sunday, an X user, Yusuf Tukur, tweeting as #realYusufTukur, claimed that Tinubu and his allies had actively sought El-Rufai’s support before the election but later accused him of not backing the president.

“When they were desperately seeking El-Rufai’s support, #officialABAT and his goons were everywhere singing Malam’s praises. Given their penchant for ingratitude, however, they’ve turned around to claim that Malam didn’t even support PBAT. But these testimonies say otherwise,” the tweet read.

In response, El-Rufai stated via his X handle that he had no personal expectations from his political actions, adding that the unfolding events were simply a reflection of human nature.

“We did what we did for God, country, and party, expecting nothing in return. What is unfolding is merely another life experience and part of human nature. We have moved on, but their conscience won’t let them sleep well. Thanks anyway,” he wrote.

Further clarifying his stance on governance, El-Rufai had said he does not subscribe to political pretence, likening certain politicians to actors.

“Truly, I don’t know how to pretend. Being a Nollywood actor in governance is for some others, not for some of us,” he remarked.

Thank you sir for moving on. We appreciate you. But as you know Change is Constant💯😎

AMINDA:
Comment sections on social media are rife with Southwesterners now insulting Elrufai and trying to rewrite history. Yorubas are never beating the allegations. Tinubu has only succeeded in showing the North that he cannot be trusted and his words are not bankable. Never write Elrufai off. His comeback will be epic!

APC's 2027 campaign in the North will lack momentum and will be lacklustre. The Northerners Tinubu has surrounded himself with will barely deliver.

P.S: The headline is sensational and incomplete. Even the blind knew Elrufai supported Tinubu in 2023 but he WILL oppose him in 2027 and justifiably so. He has the support and blessings of young Northerners to do so. Some of us only voted Tinubu in 2023 because of Elrufai.

The present Kaduna State Governor is not Yoruba o! 🤪🤪🤪 He became Governor by El-Rufai's support. So what do we call him? A betrayer for trying to legally deal with the corrupt practices of El-Rufai and his boys?

LET ME TELL YOU! EL-RUFAI WILL BE PUT BEHIND BARS IF HE TRYS ANYTHING STUP!D BY THE KADUNA STATE GOVERNMENT NOT EVEN TINUBU.

His support for Tinubu was a political calculation which is that he will succeed Tinubu when power returns to the North.
He can't get away with Governor Uba. That wan is ready to finish him completely. That should be his worries!!!

Walahi those who made that assertion are confused and don't know jack.

It was El Rufai that cleared the air about Apc primary, Buhari and North, that was before the election

It's better for El Rufai to move on from such discussion

The mouth of a politician is like a double edge sword, you can never know when it is used for offense or defense.

To some Yorubas, it's smartness. To Northerners, it's a betrayal of trust.

Nnn

Moved or not, there's nothing to see here.

Majority are the one bearing the brunt of the current administration.

COMRADES, both Tinubu and El rufai are clowns, I don't like either of them

After reading tge accidental public servant by el Rufai I can clearly say a man like that never moves on. But he will put Tinubu on his shoes though as an opposition

LOL....

The El-Rufai I know, I.e Mallam Nasir Ahmed El-Rufai. Has not moved on. E dey pain am left, right, centre, back, front, up, down, middle, aerial, core.... e dey pain am.

Yoruba and betrayal be like bread and beans

Na yorubaland . Com be this .. no dey front truth anyhow

Free MNK

This midget supporter of APC terrorist...

hmmm

Ati Tinubu o ati kukute o, ole ni everybody.

Hell Rufai is now forming Saint and victim.

Wonderful.

You can even move to the world beyond, evil entity like u.

More dooms await you

This man for show the cabals in Nigerian Power sector shege sha.
Tinubu really fvcked up. The dumb Yoruba man occupying that position currently is more of a Comedian than a Power Miniter.
Vvery clueless

Does he have conscience? What he did before 2015 is still echoing in our minds. He wants to turn a saint overnight, na lie🤥
I'm still asking why the killings in southern Kaduna stopped so soon!

In the words of Prof. Udenta Udenta he said " once you have a dissenting view on the issues of governance in Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu's media handlers pounce on you like a pack of Wild Wolves devouring you from left right and centre."

PBAT betrayed Nasir-El Rufai simple !

In the last two (2) weeks, he should have called his handlers to order in the manner Nasir El-rufai was attacked by Publicists of the President.

More interestingly are characters like Reno Omokori and Daniel Bwala who should be taking tutorials from El Rufai having the temerity and audacity to name shame Mallam El Rufai.

El-rufai still maintains a lot of support in the core North especially amongst educated Muslims who are influencial during elections & grassroot mobilisation.

I foresee the empass between El-rufai and the President swinging some popular support against PBAT.

Recall that Buhari had almost Eleven (11) million votes from the north for over three election circles untill PBAT supported Buhari with a partly 4million votes for APC to take over power.

Tinubu's advisers and Cabinet members are seen in the North as paper weight Politicians.

Let the game go on !

Without El Rufai, Tinubu won't get half the total votes he got in 2023. 2027 is here already

Tinubu has this year alone to govern and convince Nigerians, gullible ones though, cos no one with his rationality will support him again.

Most of the ronus will be quick to term fubara as been a betrayer, just like named Prof. Osibanjo "judas".

They wil all go dumb and begin to crawl out with their warp logic if you dare refer to Tinubu as a betrayer too.

The stark reality is that Tinubu is even worse than a betrayer. If he (Tinubu), knows you are smart and a crook just like him, he will ease you out and trow you under the bus without blinking an eye.

But, personally, I equally like the treatment Elrufai has received.

They should all go and die, according to Oshomole!
