Uba Sani: I never discussed El-Rufai’s replacement with Tinubu
POLITICS DIGEST- Kaduna State governor, Uba Sani, has denied a report by an online platform that he opposed the nomination of Jafaru Sani as the replacement of his predecessor, Nasir el-Rufai, as ministerial from the state.
While discrediting the report, the governor said that he only met with President Bola Tinubu to discuss recent issues concerning Mr El-Rufai’s ministerial nomination.
He described the story as a conjecture, which was aimed at creating friction between them.

“The only thing that is true in the story is that I met with the president. Every other thing is false and a conjecture to create friction between me and Mallam [El-Rufai].
“I went to see the president specifically because I was worried by the turn of events. I believe both of them mean well for the country.
“At no time did we discuss the issue of replacement. That is the least of my worries.
“If indeed Mallam wants to nominate a replacement, I will never oppose his choice. We are on the same page.
Those who know us very well know that this is all lies. We know where the disinformation is coming from but we are not bothered,” the governor said.
