Says Peddlers of Rumour Will Get His Lawyer’s Response
- Safiu Kehinde
Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has dismissed claim of his defection from the All Progressive Congress (APC) to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), labelling it as fake.
El-Rufai stated this in a post on his official X handle on Sunday.
He also revealed that he has taken legal action against the rumour peddlers.
“Please disregard the patent lies and rumours about my political affiliation. I have referred the lead peddlers of the fake news for further action by my lawyers.” The ex-Kaduna governor posted.
According to reports, a close aide to the former governor alleged that the rumour is the handiwork of mischief makers, noting that El-Rufai, being a prominent political figure, couldn’t have decamped to the PDP without making it public.
