He cautioned El-Rufai to avoid distractions and focus on his presidential ambitions, emphasizing that his actions should be guided by a sense of responsibility and leadership.
During an interview with Arise TV, I don’t expect Nasir [El-Rufai] to be getting involved in nonsense. He’s a potential president. But he can’t be jumping here, jumping here and getting angry, no.
Showunmi’s comments highlight the complexities of Nigerian politics, where alliances and rivalries can shift rapidly.
