2023 Presidency: VP Yemi Osinbajo? El-Rufai Finally Reveals Cabal Working against Tinubu

Governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El-Rufai, has reacted to the insinuations that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is one of the “elements” in the Aso Rock working against the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. El-Rufai sparked controversy on Wednesday, February 2 when he said some persons in Aso Rock were working against Tinubu’s ambition.

The statement led to speculations, with many APC supporters pointing accusing fingers at the vice president who was one of the top politicians who lost the party’s presidential ticket to Tinubu.

In an Arise News TV interview, Governor El-Rufai said the naira notes policy which is causing hardship for Nigerians was designed to jeopardise the APC’s chances in the elections.

He said those behind the policy were the same people who wanted someone else to succeed President Buhari but the person they wanted, lost at the primaries. His words: “This thought, this thinking to change the currency is designed just to bring serious bottleneck that will affect the outcome of the elections because these same people wanted President Buhari to be succeeded by someone else and that person did not win the election and that someone is not the Vice President because I saw some reports in the newspapers mentioning Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, no, not at all.

“These people are northerners like us, they are northerners like Buhari but they are intent on undermining his legacy by ensuring that they cause a crisis because after eight years of Buhari if he is succeeded by another northerner there are chances that we will have more pockets of crisis in the country.”
