Kwankwaso Slams El-Rufai for Alleged Blackmail Against Tinubu in APC Politics

Musa Ilyasu Kwankwaso, a leading stakeholder in the APC from Kano, accused former Kaduna State Governor Nasiru El-Rufai of attempting to blackmail and lie about President Bola Tinubu. Kwankwaso criticized El-Rufai's methods as outdated and aimed at tarnishing Tinubu's reputation ahead of the 2027 presidency.

He challenged El-Rufai to provide evidence of his allegations of Tinubu's involvement in sponsoring banditry across the country. Kwankwaso praised Tinubu's achievements in addressing poverty, insecurity, and economic challenges, crediting figures like Mallam Nuhu Ribadu for improved security.

He accused El-Rufai of instigating unrest in the northern part of the country against Tinubu's administration.
