This Online News platform learnt that El-Rufai was spotted at the national secretariat of the Social Democratic Party in Abuja on Wednesday.
The APC chieftain was seen in a viral video on social media paying a consultation visit to the national chairman of the SDP, Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam.
However, during the meeting, someone was heard cautioning those taking photographs against leaking the pictures of the visit on social media, but El-Rufai said, ‘I don’t care’.
SaharaReporters had reported how the Nigerian Senate failed to confirm the nomination of El-Rufai as a minister of the country last August.
After the seven-day of screening of the 49 ministerial nominees sent to it for screening by President Bola Tinubu, the Senate did not also confirm the appointment of the former Deputy Governor of Taraba State and a ministerial nominee from the state, Senator Abubakar Danladi.
Also not confirmed by the Upper Chamber was one of the ministerial nominees from Delta State, Stella Okotete.
According to Senate President Godswill Akpabio, the Senate did not clear the three because of security reports that must be cleared.
