Nasir El-Rufai and Works and Housing Minister Babatunde Fashola confirmed yesterday that President Muhammadu Buhari’s commitment to the victory of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the standard bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the February 25 presidential poll is not in doubt.
Their confirmation came in the wake of an affirmation by Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, of the President’s backing for the aspiration of the one-time Lagos State governor.
El-Rufai, who dismissed as a mere rumour that Buhari was not supporting Tinubu’s presidential bid, said all APC governors under the umbrella of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF), would work hard for victory on February 25 and March 11.
EL-RUFAI who insisted that Buhari has publicly declared his unflinching support for Tinubu, said due to national assignments, the President cannot be in all states for their party’s rallies
