Bashir El-Rufai, son of former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, has surprised many by reversing his stance on Labour Party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi. In a candid post on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday, Bashir described Obi as “a great potential President or VP,” admitting that his previous negative views were influenced by members of his former party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

“My mind was poisoned by my former party members,” Bashir confessed, stating that his perception of Obi had changed. This revelation comes at a time when political realignments are stirring, as Bashir's father, Nasir El-Rufai, made headlines by resigning from the APC and joining the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

El-Rufai’s defection was driven by a growing disconnect with the direction of the APC, alongside frustrations with the party’s leadership. He has now set his sights on 2027, aiming to build a unified opposition front to challenge the APC in future elections.

With his father's shift to the SDP and Bashir’s unexpected praise for Peter Obi, political watchers are eager to see what these moves mean for the 2027 elections.
