May 29: El-Rufai Speaks On Becoming Tinubu’s Chief Of Staff

In response to rumors that he will replace Bola Tinubu as president-elect’s chief of staff, Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai issued a statement.

After leaving the government on May 29, El-Rufai declared he will not serve as Tinubu’s chief of staff.

Because of his friendship with Tinubu throughout the campaign, El-Rufai was reportedly one candidate for the role of chief of staff for the president-elect.

El-Rufai asserted he wants to continue working in the private sector and support Nigeria’s growth.

On Saturday, the governor gave a speech while opening the Gombe Geographic Information Systems service center.

El-Rufai also presided over the groundbreaking ceremony for 550 Shongo Homes and Gardens in Gombe State as part of the Family Homes Fund.

Speaking, El-rufai said: “I will leave in 22 days, but I will be available anytime you need a troublemaker.”

“I will be in the private sector, I will not be any chief of staff. I will take a break and advice people like Governor Inuwa Yahaya if they need it.”
