Uba Sani, governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna, says there is no rift between Kashim Shettima, the party’s vice-presidential candidate, and Nasir el-Rufai, governor of Kaduna.
Sani said this in reaction to the rumour that the two men are having a “cold war”.
Speaking at an event in Kaduna on Friday, the senator described the rumour as “malicious”, saying the rumour mongers are ignorant of the cordial relationship Shettima and el-Rufai have.
The governorship candidate said Shettima has the full support of the Kaduna governor.

“I want to deliver a goodwill message from my brother, Governor Nasir Ahmed el-Rufai of Kaduna state,” he said.
“I want to also say here that Governor El-Rufai has total support for our brother, His Excellency, Senator Kashim Shettima; we have worked together, we are brothers and we are friends.”
According to him, Kaduna will give Bola Tinubu, APC presidential candidate, and Shettima the highest votes in the country.
