El-Rufai’s Son Bashir El-Rufai Blasts Tinubu, Calls Re-Election Bid a ‘Utter Failure of Governance'”

Bashir El-Rufai, one of the sons of Nasir El-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna State, has sent a cryptic warning to President Bola Tinubu regarding his ambition for re-election in 2027.

In a series of tweets, Bashir argued that no one is too powerful to be removed from office by the people.

According to him, that will occur with no consequence.

Apparently referring to Tinubu, Bashir stated that even the IMF and the World Bank will not help the “people” when the time comes, adding quickly: “Political strategist una.” “That one is for Lagos.”

Remember that Tinubu was regarded as a superb tactician during the 2023 presidential campaign.

El-Rufai’s father has been entangled in alleged misappropriation of public funds while serving as a Kaduna State governor.

He said: “Nobody is too big to be elected out of office by the people. It will happen & wallahi nothing will happen. So forget all these intimidations flying up and down. Let us be patient.

“Even IMF & World Bank no go save una that time. Political strategist una. That one na for Lagos.”

Following up on his earlier post, Bashir said he didn’t mention any name, doubling down on his stance that nobody will force him to support utter failure of governance disguised as a useless, dangerous, ethnocentric political strategy.

“I didn’t call names o, but due to their guilt, they already know who is being spoken about. Wallahi, none of you will force anyone to support this utter failure of governance disguised as useless, dangerous ethnocentric political strategy.”
