President Buhari Secretly Told Me His Successor Will Be From The South – El-Rufai Reveals
By Editor
The Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir Anmad El-Rufai, has come forth to discuss his discussions with President Buhari on his replacement.
According to El-Rufai who appeared in an interview on TVC claimed that in 2020, Buhari told him this and gave him the go-ahead to make it public. As shown today on TVC, in his own words…
“After President Buhari’s reelection in 2019, a few of us met him in secret and inquired about his succession plans. And during one of our conversations, he admitted that he didn’t have a succession plan. I urged him to be interested in choosing his successor, but he responded that the democratic process would provide a replacement. It doesn’t quite work that way, I told him, and he must be considering who will continue your legacy. He however agreed.”
“This is exactly how the dialogue went on, but President Buhari didn’t even have a position by the time we got to 2020. Then, in 2020, I questioned him about who he wanted to succeed since he didn’t have to choose or anoint anyone. He questioned why I was asking him and said it was our unwritten agreement that the next president will come from the South. And I replied, “Thank you; may I make this public? And he gave the okay.”
