El-rufai says he has no plan to contest any elective seat in 2027 elections

The former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-rufai, has declared that he will not be contesting for any political position in the 2027 general elections.

El-rufai made this known in Kaduna on Wednesday while receiving defectors from the Peoples Democratic Party into the African Democratic Congress.

He said his renewed involvement in politics was not driven by personal ambition but by a desire to support credible leadership at all levels in the country.

The former Federal Capital Territory Minister explained that his initial plan after leaving office in 2023 was to step away from partisan politics but said unfolding national developments compelled him to return, stressing that his focus was now on mentoring young people, women, and reform-minded Nigerians to actively participate in governance.
