“Join in saving this country from area boys,” he wrote.
This comes after his father, Nasir El-Rufai, defected from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to the SDP, citing a disconnect between his personal values and the party’s current direction.
El-Rufai had also criticized Tinubu for appointing mostly his allies from Lagos into political offices, rather than making appointments based on merit or regional representation.
