“If We Keep Bringing Muslim-Muslim Presidential Tickets, Things Will Go Smoothly For Us” – El-Rufai

In a video recently publicized by the Punch Newspaper, former governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna state was seen addressing some people about the concluded presidential election.

Former governor Nasir El-Rufai said, “the fact is that if we keep bringing the Muslim-Muslim presidential tickets, things will keep going smoothly for us.”

Speaking further, former governor Nasir El-Rufai said, “before the last presidential election, Professor Akintola came from Lagos to meet me. He told me that it is very difficult for a Muslim from the southwest to win the presidential election. That was why we decided to place a Muslim as the vice presidential running mate of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”

Again, former governor Nasir El-Rufai said, “it was I and Zamfara state’s Bello Matawalle that made sure it happened. We did it solely for the sake of God and not for personal reasons.”

Lastly, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai said, “as Muslims, after giving our promise of supporting Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, we did not back down even though there were some of us who wanted power to remain in the north.”
