Ahead of the forthcoming inauguration on May 29, Governor Nasir El-Rufai has said that he won’t be returning to Kaduna state unless it is neccessary.
Speaking at a policy conversation and book launch in Abuja on Tuesday, May 9, the Kaduna state Governor also said that he won’t be returning as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory in the incoming administration.
El-Rufai said;
“I have done my job, I’m done, I don’t look back. In fact when I left FCT, the only time I visited FCT was in 2016 when my secondary school classmate was appointed the minister and he said he wanted to see me, so I went there.
“Once I leave a job, I don’t look back. If I leave Kaduna in 19 days, I will only visit if it becomes necessary. So, I don’t think about the FCT. I’ve done my bit. I don’t comment on the performance of those that came after me.
“Even if offered, I’m not coming to Abuja. As I say, I never repeat class and there are many young people I know that I can recommend that would do even better job than I did as minister of FCT.
“I’m too old for this. I’m too old for demolition, get a young man with blood in his veins or a young woman.”
