El-Rufai and Aisha Buhari Sidelined? Momodu Reveals How Tinubu’s Inner Circle Is Shaking Up Power
A fresh wave of political drama has hit Nigeria as veteran journalist and PDP chieftain Dele Momodu raised questions about the fate of powerful figures who helped secure President Bola Tinubu’s 2023 victory.
Speaking on Channels TV, Momodu pointed to former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai and former First Lady Aisha Buhari as key allies who now appear to be on the sidelines of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). He stressed that their efforts during the campaign were not small gestures, but major contributions that helped bring Tinubu to power.
“See what they’ve done to our brother and friend Nasiru El-Rufai. He was one of the most powerful people who ensured the victory of Tinubu,” Momodu said. “He supported him with everything, along with Mrs. Aisha Buhari. But what are they facing today?”
The journalist suggested that the administration is now reorganizing its inner circle, using presidential influence to reshape political hierarchies — leaving some former power brokers marginalized despite their crucial role in Tinubu’s rise.
Momodu also addressed claims that opposition leaders had “gone to sleep,” clarifying that the current silence is due to the overwhelming reach of presidential authority, rather than lack of action.
Curious about the full shocking details of how Tinubu’s allies are being pushed aside and what it means for Nigeria’s political landscape? Check out this hidden update here.
