The meeting held amid allegations by El-Rufai that some people in Aso Rock were working to frustrate the victory of the presidential candidate of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the February 25, 2023 Presidential election.
El-Rufai had said the saboteurs in Aso Rock were those whose candidate lost at the party’s presidential primary and are still bitter amid scarcity of fuel and new naira notes.
