Former Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State says he’s unbothered by what people will say concerning his meeting with officials of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Recall that the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain recently met with the officials of the opposition party.
The party’s National Chairman, Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam, had earlier visited El-Rufai at his Abuja residence.
Later, the SDP National Working Committee (NWC) officials received El-Rufai at the party’s secretariat.
During the visit, Gabam stated that El-Rufai has inspiring political pedigree, saying he is a friend and respected national figure.
He noted that the socio-economic challenges facing the country requires everyone to come together irrespective of political affiliation to address them.
“This is a welcome development that concerned Nigerians are cross-fertilizing ideas on how to salvage the nation’s present unpleasant socio-economic challenges of the times. The prevailing circumstance calls for bi-partisan and robust collaborations that transcend ethnic and religious lines to address the nation’s woes and find sustainable ways to redeem the situation,” Gabam was quoted to have said at the meeting.
He also said to achieve the kind of positive growth and development that Nigeria needs, Nigerians need a leader like El-Rufai to manage the affairs of the country.
