Oshiomhole Expresses Shock Over El-Rufai's Alleged APC Defection

Former Edo State governor, Adams Oshiomhole, expresses shock over rumors of Kaduna State ex-governor, Nasir El-Rufai, leaving the APC for the SDP. El-Rufai allegedly resigned from the APC on March 10, 2025, and joined the SDP, a move that surprised Oshiomhole.

Oshiomhole, a key figure in the formation of the APC, has been critical of the party's leadership, accusing them of deviating from its founding principles. While Oshiomhole clarified that he has not changed his attire due to political influence, he acknowledged the changing political landscape.

El-Rufai's reported defection highlights the shifting dynamics within Nigerian politics and the challenges faced by major political parties.
