The leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State has reacted to the defection of former Governor Nasir El-Rufai to the Social Democratic Party (PDP).
Speaking to journalists in Kaduna, the APC secretary in the state, Yahaya Baba-Pate, said its members would not lose sleep over El-Rufai’s action.
Baba-Pate noted the APC is completely focused on delivering Kaduna state to President Bola Tinubu and Governor Uba Sani in the 2027 election and unperturbed about the former governor’s defection.
He also said, “We are unperturbed by former governor Nasir El-Rufai’s defection to another party. Our main focus in Kaduna is on how to deliver the state to both President Ahmed Bola Tinubu and Governor Uba Sani in 2027.
“The APC in Kaduna State is growing day by day, judging from the calibre of politicians streaming into the party on a daily basis. So, we are not disturbed by anybody defecting to another party based on our governor’s inclusive governance in the state.
“We are not disturbed and we are not going to lose our sleep over El-rufai’s moves. The party in the state is growing more than before,” Baba-Pate added.
