Analyst Imran Wakili Alleges Tinubu and APC Betrayed El-Rufai

Imran Wakili has accused President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress of abandoning former Kaduna governor Nasir El-Rufai despite his key role in their 2023 victories. Wakili said El-Rufai helped build the alliances that delivered Tinubu’s presidential win and Uba Sani’s election as Kaduna governor. He noted that one leader publicly called El-Rufai a mentor, while another urged him to stay and drive the Renewed Hope agenda. These remarks come as El-Rufai remains in the custody of anti-corruption agencies. Wakili insists history cannot be rewritten and that El-Rufai’s contributions must be recognized.

Given El-Rufai's crucial role in Tinubu's victory, why would APC just abandon him now?

True, he delivered big on behalf of APC. Abandoning him now just doesn't add up.

It seems odd that a party would ignore one of its architects right after a major win.

Wakili's claim might overstate El-Rufai's influence; internal party strategy could explain tensions without betrayal.

APC stakeholders should open clear communication channels with key allies like El-Rufai to prevent similar rifts going forward.
