JUST IN: SDP expels El-Rufai, bans ex-Gov for one-month

Former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has been expelled from the Social Democratic Party, SDP.

 

Announcing his expulsion from the party, SDP also imposed a 30-year ban on El-Rufai.

 

SDP’s National Working Committee, NWC, said the action was in line with the party’s constitution, ideology, manifesto, principles, and practices, as well as in consonance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Electoral Act pertaining to the exclusive right of a political party to determine its membership.

 

A statement by the party’s spokesman, Araba Rufus Aiyenigba, warned members against associating with El-Rufai and those who don’t represent its interest.

 

Parts of the statement read: “El-Rufai is hereby banished and banned from applying for membership, identifying with the name, insignia, logo, symbol, mark, or any activities, organs, agencies, and institutions of the SDP or donating to, supporting, contributing to, or participating in any affairs of the SDP for a period of 30 years effective from today.”

 

It would be recalled that El-Rufai joined the SDP after quiting the All Progressives Congress, APC.

 

However, El-Rufai is also a key member of the opposition coalition which recently adopted the African Democratic Congress, ADC, as its platform ahead of the 2027 election.
