Former governor of Kaduna, Nasir el-Rufai, has vowed that the opposition coalition would ensure President Bola Tinubu is removed in 2027.
Speaking on Wednesday at the second edition of the Arewa Tech Fest in Katsina, El-Rufai said Tinubu will be removed, while the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy will be retained in the next government.
The former governor and chieftain of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) said Tijani is doing good work and therefore should be retained.

He said: “They (the organising team) had to come without me because yesterday (Tuesday) at 8pm there was a very important meeting of the coalition we’re putting together to ensure that President Tinubu goes back to Lagos.
“Though we will still keep Bosun Tijani, we will still keep the minister because he is doing good work.
“I had to attend that meeting at 8pm. The Katsina airport does not operate after 8pm, so I could not come until this morning.”
El-Rufai is a leading figure among opposition politicians actively mobilising to form a broad coalition of political parties to unseat President Tinubu in 2027.
The former Kaduna Governor’s political alignment shifted in March when he left the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the SDP.
