Nasir El Rurai, the immediate past governor of Kaduna state has threatened legal action against those who claimed he has left the All Progressives Congress,APC, for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The claim is a wicked lie, the former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT said, urging Nigerians to ignore those carrying the rumour.
The former governor made the rebuttal on his verified X handle on Sunday, saying he remains a member of the ruling APC.
“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,” the former governor said.
The magazine reported that the former governor became disgruntled with the ruling party after his quest to become a minister of the federal republic was dashed, following his failure to scale the Nigerian Senate screening hurdles.
Those close to him, said he blamed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his misfortune in the APC, and has vowed to fight back in the next 2027 presidential election.
The disgruntled former FTC minister is planning to join forces with other opposition leaders to scuttle President Tinubu’s return to power, sources close to him informed the magazine.
But now that he has vowed to remain in the party, analysts said they are wondering whether he can figt the president from within.
