Self-Serving Desperado! – SDP Blasts El-Rufai Over Claim Of Merger With ADC

The Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Kaduna State has dismissed claims by former governor, Nasir El-Rufai, that its structure in the state has collapsed.
El-Rufai and some opposition leaders announced over the weekend that the entire SDP structure in Kaduna had been dissolved into the African Democratic Congress (ADC) during a strategic meeting.
However, the SDP asserted that its structures are intact, adding that the party is focused on repositioning itself as a credible opposition.
In a statement signed by its State Chairman, Adamu Idris, the party stated that it would not be distracted by El-Rufai’s attempts to sow division.
The SDP recalled that El-Rufai’s brief stint in the SDP was marked by internal wrangling and disruption, stressing that peace and stability have since been restored following his exit.
According to the statement, “our structures are robust and alive across Kaduna State. We are committed to promoting the true interests of Nigerians and will not be distracted by El-Rufai’s attempts to sow division.”
The party went further to lambast the ex-governor, describing him as “a non-democrat, self-serving desperado, unrepentant bigot and tyranny personified.”
It assured supporters that it would continue to advocate for democracy and good governance while rejecting any attempts to undermine its unity and values.
