In his response, El-Rufai categorically refuted the claims, stating: “Fake news alert: Please disregard the patent lies and rumours about my political affiliation. I have referred the lead peddlers of the fake news for further action by my lawyers.”
Another X user @YangoBature tweet read: “You people said El-Rufai is not important, you even blackmailed him into getting a ministerial appointment... APC don't need him again according to you people, but PDP still needs him.”
