El-Rufai Exposes APC's Political Strategy for 2023 Presidential Election

Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, revealed that the Muslim-Muslim ticket strategy adopted by the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 presidential election is a political tactic rather than a religious agenda. El-Rufai dismissed concerns of religious exclusion, emphasizing that the decision was based on electoral calculations rather than faith considerations.

He argued that the strategy aims to secure victory and not promote religious bias. El-Rufai highlighted the need for Nigeria to move beyond religious speculation in politics and focus on factors that can lead to electoral success.

His remarks come amidst ongoing debates on religious representation in Nigerian politics.
