El-Rufai started attacking Jonathan after picking Sambo as VP – Omokri

 Reno Omokri, a staunch supporter of President Bola Tinubu’s
administration has claimed that former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai
started attacking ex-President Goodluck Jonathan after he picked Nemadi Sambo
as his Vice Presidential nominee in 2010.

 

He was reacting to El-Rufai’s claim that the Labour Party,
LP, presidential candidate, Peter Obi informed him that mercenaries were hired
to destroy the LP like they are doing in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

 

El-Rufai disclosed this while noting that he no longer
recognized the APC because the party lacked internal democracy.

 

The former governor said the APC organs like the National
Executive Committee, NEC, and Caucus have not met in the last two years.

 

Speaking at an event in Abuja, El-Rufai accused APC of
deviating from its founding principles.

 

However, posting on X, Omokri wrote: “Why did Peter Obi
choose to make that statement on the same day that those men met? Look, the
signs are obvious. Peter Obi knows, as I know, that their intentions for
Nigeria are just state capture.

 

“Because Mr. Obi was part of the Jonathan administration,
like myself, and knows that Nasir el-Rufai met President Jonathan at the Aso
Rock Presidential Villa on Tuesday, May 11, 2010, and began praising Dr.
Jonathan after that meeting and urging the then-acting President to contest the
2011 Presidential election because he thought he would be named vice President
by President Jonathan.

 

“But four days later, on May 15, 2010, when then-President
Jonathan named Namadi Sambo the vice presidential nominee instead of him, Nasir
el-Rufai began fighting him.

 

“Now, after having been snubbed by this administration,
el-Rufai is up to his old antics.

 

“I call on Nigerians to remind Nasir el-Rufai of his
diabolical history and tell him they would not stand for a military coup
because he lost out on becoming a minister.”
