Demola Olarewaju, Atiku Abubakar's Senior Political Assistant for the African Democratic Congress presidential campaign, has claimed that the former vice president could secure one million votes from Kaduna State during the 2027 election, thanks to the influence of former Governor Nasir El-Rufai. Olarewaju shared this information on social media platform X, expressing concern that the All Progressives Congress (APC) might display its dictatorial tendencies in the upcoming polls.
He emphasized that Kaduna has historically been Atiku's strongest voting state, both in times of victory and defeat, but warned that APC's actions have already demonstrated a lack of fairness. The current detention of El-Rufai, ordered by the Abuja Federal High Court since February 18, 2026, adds another layer to the political atmosphere in Nigeria.
The former governor was arrested in Egypt and subsequently detained on various charges, including fraud and alleged communication interception, following investigations by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) and the Department of State Services (DSS).
