Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has stated that he is not a “Nollywood actor” in governance, emphasizing his straightforward approach to politics.
He made this remark on Saturday while responding to an X user who praised his book, Accidental Public Servant.
The user noted that El-Rufai’s candidness makes him a fit for any cabinet genuinely focused on national development.
In his response, El-Rufai appreciated the comment, reaffirming that he doesn’t engage in political pretenses, unlike some other politicians.
“Thanks for your kind words, @irahabib. Truly, I don’t know how to pretend. Being a Nollywood actor in governance is for some others, not some of us. Have a nice day. – @elrufai”
Recently, El-Rufai criticized his party the All Progressives Congress (APC) for abandoning its founding principles and fostering poor leadership.
“I no longer recognize the APC. No party organ has met in two years—no caucus, no NEC, nothing. You don’t even know if it is a one-man show; it’s a zero-man show.”
