No plan to suspend El-Rufai
As reported by TheCable, Wusono stated this in a text message on Tuesday night, April 16.
There were reports that el-Rufai would soon be suspended for alleged anti-party activities.
“Nothing like this!”
This is coming days after the APC chairman, Umar Ganduje was suspended by executives from his ward in Kano state.
Legit.ng recalls that El-Rufai paid a courtesy visit to the national secretariat of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) on Wednesday, March 20.
The visit was the second of its kind recently that the APC chieftain will be seen undertaking.
El-Rufai’s visit to the SDP national secretariat was allegedly to consult with the opposition party’s leadership, led by Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam.
The former governor also visited the home of a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senator, Abdul Ningi, who was suspended from the upper house of the national assembly.
Meanwhile, El-Rufai’s visit to Senator Ningi’s home adds to his series of notable courtesy visits including the former Aviation Minister and APC chieftain, Femi Fani Kayode.
