Former Kaduna State Governor and founding member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nasir El-Rufai, has officially resigned from the ruling party and joined the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
In a statement released on his X handle on Monday, El-Rufai attributed his departure to a growing misalignment between his personal values and the APC’s current direction.
He expressed disappointment with the party’s leadership, accusing it of straying from the progressive ideals envisioned by its founding members.
This development marks a significant shift in Nigeria’s political landscape, as El-Rufai has been a key figure in the APC since its formation.
