The immediate past Governor of Kaduna Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, has said he is not sure if he will support President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

El Rufai made this statement, on Monday, as a guest on the ARISE NEWS Prime Time programme, saying that if Tinubu decides to re-contest for the presidency in 2027, he is not sure if he will vote for him.

El- Rufai also slammed President Tinubu’s imbalance in the number and choice of his political appointments, which he said doesn’t reflect national spread.

Speaking further and when asked if he would leave the APC, the former Minister of the FCT, said he was still considering other options if the APC values do not align with his own values, however insisted that the PDP was not an option to consider to defect to.

On his period as Governor of Kaduna state, he said that at no time did he ever think of contesting as governor of Kaduna, but for former President Muhammadu Buhari who forced into contesting as governor of the state in 2015

On why he wasn’t appointed a Minister by President Bola Tinubu, the former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory said the President changed his mind on the nomination after asking him publicly not to be far from him after leaving office.

He said, “Since I left office and the President begged me publicly to come and serve in his government, I had my plans and told President Tinubu from day one when he asked me to support him, I said would, but I don’t want anything because politics in Nigeria is always about what do I get for giving you support.
