•Former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai

Former Kaduna State governor and founding member of the All Progressives Congress, Nasir El-Rufai, has dumped the ruling party for the Social Democratic Party.

The prominent politician cited a growing misalignment between his personal values and the current direction of the APC as the primary reason for his decision.

El-Rufai disclosed this in a press statement released on his X handle today, where he expressed his disappointment with the APC’s leadership, accusing the party of straying from the progressive ideals of its founding members.
