Chieftain of African Democratic Congress (ADC) and former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has declared that President Bola Tinubu’s Government is incompetent. He said the lives of Nigerians might be at stake if he secures another term in the 2027 general elections.
Speaking during a grassroots mobilisation rally in Sokoto organised by the opposition coalition led by the ADC, El-Rufai made a bold declaration against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and pledged to actively campaign for its removal from power.
“I’m not in politics to gain anything for myself. I’m here to serve. When the government fails to serve the people, I see it as my duty, as a senior citizen, to speak out and act to change the situation.”
El-Rufai, once a prominent figure in the APC, warned that allowing the present administration to continue beyond 2027 could lead to the complete collapse of Nigeria’s social fabric.
“We’re in Sokoto to begin mobilising Nigerians against the APC, both at the state and federal levels. If this party continues in power beyond 2027, what remains of Nigeria’s social capital may be destroyed.
We may not even have a country. This is a fight for survival.”
El-Rufai left the APC in March 2025 after the Senate declined to confirm his ministerial appointment, allegedly over security concerns.
He briefly joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP), but was expelled and handed a 30-year ban over accusations including forgery of membership documents.
