Malam Nasir El-Rufai, governor of Kaduna State, declared yesterday that he will never return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), stressing that even his corpse would not be found in the party.
El-Rufai stated this in response to Daniel Bwala, a spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar’s presidential campaign, who claimed that the Kaduna governor would soon defect to the PDP.
The governor of Kaduna State rose to national prominence as director general of the Bureau of Public Enterprise (BPE) and later as minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Bwala, had earlier claimed on his twitter that governor El-Rufai will soon abandon the All Progressive Congress (APC) and join PDP before the 2023 general elections.

Hmm @elrufai is one of the finest we have from the north, I will never join issues with him, especially because I am optimistic he will be with us before the 2023 elections.” Bwala wrote.
But taking to his verified twitter handle, El-Rufai replied Bwala thus: “Thanks @BwalaDaniel but no, thanks. Never ever, not even my corpse will be found in the vicinities of your new-found political party. I still Dey laugh!!!-@elrufai.”
