The Presidency has responded to criticism from former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, with the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communications, Daniel Bwala, accusing El-Rufai of treachery.

Bwala expressed disappointment over El-Rufai’s comments, questioning why he would criticize the government and the ruling party after participating in its formation.

“My Senior brother if you were to be in the government and cabinet, would you have held and expressed the same position?

History is replete with examples. It is a government you participated in its formation, that you now want to unseat,” Bwala posted via X on Tuesday.

El-Rufai had described the state of governance and opposition in Nigeria as a “national emergency,” criticizing the All Progressives Congress (APC) for abandoning its founding principles and failing to address key issues.

He also lamented the lack of internal democracy and active party structures within the APC.

The APC has also responded to El-Rufai’s criticism, with National Publicity Director Bala Ibrahim stating that El-Rufai should have channeled his concerns to the party leadership instead of publicly criticizing the Party.

However, Ibrahim acknowledged that El-Rufai is entitled to his opinion.

The development has sparked reactions from opposition parties, with some backing El-Rufai’s criticism of the APC.
