Buhari, Tinubu and El-Rufai<\/p>\n

By Amah<\/p>\n

Kindly share:<\/p>\n

There are strong indications that some former ministers of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari will move en masse to the Social Democratic Party.A senator in the ninth Assembly, who spoke to Saturday PUNCH on condition of anonymity, said at least 10 former members of the Buhari cabinet were moving to the SDP.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat they\u2019re waiting for is the finalisation of the party structure in their respective states,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

Our correspondents gathered that leading Buhari\u2019s loyalists in the defections are the former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Adamu; ex-Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami; and former Senate President, Ahmed Lawan.<\/p>\n

El-Rufai makes first move<\/p>\n

One of Buhari\u2019s loyalists and former governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, on Monday, defected to the SDP, citing a growing misalignment between his personal values and the current direction of the APC as the primary reason for his decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cDevelopments in the last two years confirm that those who currently control and run the APC do not desire to acknowledge, much less address, the party\u2019s unhealthy situation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have raised concerns in private and, more recently, in public regarding the party\u2019s capricious trajectory. Therefore, at this point in my political journey, I have come to the conclusion that I must seek another political platform to pursue the progressive values I cherish,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

El-Rufai, who is a vocal critic of President Bola Tinubu\u2019s administration, disclosed on Wednesday that he sought Buhari\u2019s approval before leaving the APC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI left the APC with his (Buhari\u2019s) full knowledge. I visited him on a Friday and informed him of my decision to leave the party because I involve and consult with him on all my matters.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have those I consult with in everything I do. I inform them of anything I intend to do, and when they demand that I keep off, I do. My first godfather is Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the rest, I will not mention them because if I do, they\u2019ll be pressured,\u201d El-Rufai told the BBC Hausa service in an interview.<\/p>\n

CPC bloc to work against Tinubu<\/p>\n

El-Rufai\u2019s defection and Buhari\u2019s purported approval opened a floodgate of defections as some other members of the APC in the North, especially those of CPC extraction, have also been dumping the party.<\/p>\n

Buhari, El-Rufai, Malami, and Lawan were leaders of the Congress for Progress Change until the party joined the Action Congress of Nigeria, a part of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, and members of the New Peoples Democratic Party to form the APC in 2013.<\/p>\n

The former Kaduna governor\u2019s statement also revealed the long-talked-about coalition involving some aggrieved leaders of the APC.<\/p>\n

Following El-Rufai\u2019s defection, a chieftain of the APC, Ahmad Kaita, who is a former senator, and member of the House of Representatives from Katsina, also joined the SDP.<\/p>\n

Kaita is also a former member of the CPC.<\/p>\n

Similarly, former Kaduna State commissioners for Agriculture, Ibrahim Hussaini; Justice, Aisha Dikko; Health, Amina Baloni; and Education, Halima Lawal; as well as former Head of Service, Hajiya Bari\u2019atu Mohammed, also dumped the APC for the SDP.<\/p>\n

Also, the Campaign Secretary of the APC in Gombe State during the 2015 general elections, Adamu Modibbo, has left the party. Modibbo is now the chairman of the SDP in the state.<\/p>\n

A former Publicity Secretary of the APC in Borno State, Abdulaziz Galadima, while confirming his defection to the SDP to our correspondent, said he left the party because it deviated from the principles and ideology on which it was founded.<\/p>\n

Galadima also confirmed that many original CPC members would leave the APC for \u201cSDP or another party.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other politicians leaving<\/p>\n

Saturday PUNCH reached out to Malami for comments on the matter, but the SAN neither answered calls nor responded to messages sent to his mobile phone.<\/p>\n

However, one of his closest aides confirmed his involvement in the coalition move.<\/p>\n

The aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said, \u201cIt is not about ousting Tinubu in 2027 but about our conviction that we have better and more credible constitutional alternatives to offer Nigerians in governance, particularly with regard to institutionalising a human-centred approach to governance.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe collectively abhor the prevailing order in which governance is commercialised to the detriment of Nigerians and their welfare. It seems to be a marriage of tendencies that cut across the existing political parties with high-profile politicians from PDP, defunct CPC, ACN and APC among others.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn personality sense, those involved across the geographical zones include serving and former governors and senators, former ministers, and past and present party officials.\u201d<\/p>\n

The highly credible source mentioned former governors of Rivers, Imo, Cross Rivers, Sokoto and Osun states, Rotimi Amaechi, Emeka Ihedioha, Liyel Imoke, Aminu Tambuwal and Rauf Aregbesola, respectively, as part of the stakeholders in the coalition movement.<\/p>\n

A former Senate President, David Mark; ex-national chairman of APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun; a former Buhari\u2019s Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba, and the senator representing Borno South, Ali Ndume, among others, were also involved in the coalition.<\/p>\n

Speaking with Saturday PUNCH, a chieftain of the APC in Imo State confirmed that the CPC extraction in the APC had concluded plans to leave the party for a coalition.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat some ministers who served under Buhari are leaving or will leave the APC is confirmed. However, they may not join the SDP, but I know they are part of the coalition movement,\u201d said the chieftain, who spoke on condition of anonymity.<\/p>\n

According to him, no fewer than 10 ministers and many senators in the ninth National Assembly were leaving the APC.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cPresident Tinubu has mismanaged the success of our party, and it is painful that things are going awry every day. APC bigwigs, both in the North and South, are not happy, and the President doesn\u2019t care. You don\u2019t grow by reducing in size. The APC is reducing in size.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe CPC bloc of the party has also been leaving. You will agree with me that the CPC is a strong bloc in the APC, and if it is gone, I doubt if the APC will remain the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose leaving the APC are foundation members who have genuine followers. Apart from El-Rufai, other former governors are also involved in the political movement. These are not paperweight politicians.\u201d<\/p>\n

Similarly, a former Minister of Sports and Youth Development, Solomon Lalong, in an interview with Saturday PUNCH, said he was aware that many Nigerians, including former ministers, were involved in some political discussions.<\/p>\n

Lalong, who left the APC for the SDP in 2022, said, \u201cWe are in discussions with many people across the country, including former ministers and senators. But because it is at the level of discussion, I will have to protect their identities.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, I can assure you that, from what is going on, a large number of the political class from across the political parties in Nigeria are coming together to have a common front.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis problem Tinubu found himself in is self-inflicted. It is caused by his ego. He is an egoistic personality who sees himself as an emperor. He thinks he has conquered Nigeria. But I\u2019m telling you that unless he changes his method of governance, we will soon know who Nigerians are.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lalong also accused President Tinubu of not treating Buhari fairly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe two of them aligned in 2014 to form the APC, which won the election. Buhari conceded the vice president to Tinubu and five other ministers, and he supported his presidential ambition.<\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently, Tinubu cannot mention a single special adviser he considered for Buhari in his administration. The President is not treating Buhari fairly,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Aregbesola\u2019s media adviser, Sola Fasure, declined to comment on the purported plan by the former Minister of Interior to join the SDP.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will talk about our political movement at the right time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

But one of Aregbesola\u2019s loyalists, who spoke to Saturday PUNCH on condition of anonymity, said the former governor had been invited to join the SDP.<\/p>\n

According to the insider, Aregbesola is part of a political movement involving some of his colleagues from the Buhari administration and other prominent politicians in the country.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI can\u2019t confirm whether it is the SDP we are joining, but I know there is an ongoing political movement. Some ministers and former APC officials are involved.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe movement is even bigger than any single political party. From my understanding, even if we join the SDP, the African Democratic Congress, or any other party, it will only serve as a structure. Eventually, all these smaller parties will collapse into a coalition in 2027. A coalition is the main game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aregbesola\u2019s group, Omoluabi Progressives, left the APC a few months ago, citing ostracism, suspension, and expulsion of members without fair hearing, as well as the perceived neglect and marginalisation of the group within the APC structure.<\/p>\n

When contacted, Buhari\u2019s media aide, Garba Shehu, said he would have to reach the former president before commenting on the reported defection plan of his ministers.<\/p>\n

But Buhari has reiterated that he is a loyal member of the APC and would like to be addressed as such.
