Presidency to El-Rufai: Your inordinate is destined to fail

The Presidency on Monday has described the defection of the former governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Social Democratic Party (SDP) as “Inordinate ambition that is destined to fail.”

The former FCT Minister who said he dumped APC because it has derailed from the democratic norms and the ideology upon which the party was founded blamed the leadership of the APC for many political and economic crises facing the country.

But  Special Adviser on Policy Communications to President Bola Tinubu, Dr Daniel Bwala, in a tweet on his verified X handle @Bwala Daniel, said the motive for the defection of El-Rufai from APC was suspect.
According to him, the pure reason for the defection of El-Rufai was purely inordinate ambition that is bound to fail and has nothing to do with the party’s ideology of progressivism.
Bwala, in the tweet stated, inter alia: “I read in the news today that you resigned from APC to join SDP. Well, I have nothing against you because you exercised your constitutional right.
“However, the motive is what we would interrogate in the coming days and remind Nigerians that you are not a phenomenon that emerged like a clap of thunder out of a blue sky.

“We would intellectually remind you that associating with sore losers to unseat the incumbent is not an ideology, neither is it progressivism; it is simply an inordinate ambition, that is destined to fail.”
