El-Rufai: Governance Isn’t a Nollywood Script—I Have No Interest
Former governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, says he is not a politician who likes to pretend like some of his colleagues do.
El-Rufai said this on Saturday while appreciating an X user who commended him for a book he authored which was titled ‘Accidental Public Servant’.
The X user had stated that after reading the book, he was convinced that only a politician who intends to develop the country truly would have El-Rufai in his cabinet.
“The day I read El-Rufai’s book titled Accidental Public Servant, I concluded that no politician would want @elrufai in their cabinet unless they genuinely intend to develop this country. He doesn’t know how to pretend,” the user wrote.
In his reaction to the post, El-Rufai said he doesn’t pretend, adding that “being a Nollywood actor” in governance is not for him but for some other politicians.
“Thanks for your kind words, @irahabib. Truly, I don’t know how to pretend. Being a Nollywood actor in governance is for some others, not some of us. Have a nice day. – @elrufai”
