There are indications that all is not well within the ruling party, All Progressives Congress (APC), as the country moves closer to the 2023 general election, after the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, alleged that some individuals working directly with President Muhammadu Buhari have other agenda aside from the party’s plan to win the upcoming election in the country.

He stated that the interest of the ruling party was to ensure that its candidate, Bola Tinubu, succeed Buhari, but the president’s aides do not want this to come into reality.

And to achieve this, El-Rufai said that they have ensured that the Federal Government introduced policies and programmes including currency redesign, to create hardship within the country and frustrate the party’s effort towards winning the poll.

The governor noted that these aides started the plot using President Muhammadu Buhari after all efforts to get their preferred candidate to win the APC primary failed, resulting to other plans that could scuttle the ruling party chances during the election.

According to him, not all those working with Buhari were members of the APC and this formed reasons there had been a cold war between the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) and the Aso Villa.

He made the allegations on Wednesday while responding to the current economic challenges and plans the APC and its presidential candidate have to ensure that Nigeria gets better if they win the election scheduled for February 25th, 2023.
