2027: El-Rufai reveals pact with Atiku, Obi on new political platform

Former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has disclosed the agreement between him, ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and ex-Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, regarding the coalition.

El-Rufai said they all agreed to leave their political parties and focus on a new platform if they have a consensus on a party.

Speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time show on Monday, he said they are yet to agree on a platform.

He said: “When I joined the SDP, I made it very clear, just like every other person.

“Just like Atiku is in the PDP and Peter Obi has not officially left the Labour Party, but we all agreed that if we have a consensus on a platform, we are going to give up our legacy parties and focus on the platform.

“We are still not there yet. The leadership will receive a report on the engagement with the SDP and other parties, and a decision will be taken.

“Nigerians are tired of the APC, we know that. We have polled that. There is a 91% disapproval of this administration across the country. It is the worst in Nigerian history, but Nigerians are looking for credible options.”
