El-Rufai Denies Friendship with Tinubu, Cites Philosophical Differences as Reason for Fallout
In a recent statement, El-Rufai, the former Governor of Kaduna State, revealed that his disagreement with Bola Tinubu, the former Governor of Lagos State, and a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC), stemmed from fundamental philosophical disparities in governance. El-Rufai emphasized that he did not align with Tinubu's personal philosophy, even declining a ministerial position under his leadership.
El-Rufai stressed his commitment to party unity and the principles on which the APC was founded. The clarification comes amidst speculations about internal rifts within the APC, particularly as the party prepares for upcoming primaries.
