Daily Post Nigeria 2027: El-Rufai will be Atiku’s placeholder in SDP if PDP denies him presidential ticket – Buba Galadima Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Politics 2027: El-Rufai will be Atiku’s placeholder in SDP if PDP denies him presidential ticket – Buba Galadima Published on April 10, 2025 By Seun Opejobi A chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, Buba Galadima, has alleged that former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, is a placeholder for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, ex-presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the Social Democratic Party, SDP. Galadima made the revelation during an interview with AIT. He wondered why Atiku would agree to work with El-Rufai, considering his previous attacks on the Vice President.
Stressing that El-Rufai has no political relevance, Galadima said the intending SDP coalition was ineffective and merely noisemaking. Galadima said: “Did El-Rufai win one local government in Kaduna in 2020? He was a sitting governor in Kaduna when PDP won all three senatorial elections. “He was a sitting governor in Kaduna when the PDP won 12 out of 14 House of Reps seats, and they won only one, while the other one was won by the Labour Party.
That is, as a sitting governor. Now that he’s out and even fighting the governor from outside, how many votes do you think he can win?” “The SDP coalition is ineffective; their activities are merely noisemaking. El-Rufai is actually serving as a placeholder for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar within the SDP.
” “I am surprised at Atiku’s willingness to work with El-Rufai. El-Rufai had previously advised Atiku to save his money for his children and declared that Atiku would never become president in Nigeria.” “The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) would emerge as the larger vehicle to unite opposition parties in the 2027 presidential election.
” Atiku, El-Rufai, and some eminent politicians had announced the birth of a coalition under the SDP. Following the declaration, a former presidential candidate of SDP, Adewale Adebayo, said Atiku, Peter Obi, and some eminent politicians are in talks to join the party . Adebayo said the coalition would wrest power from President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
