The Social Democratic Party, SDP, Kaduna State chapter has described as false the report banishing immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, from the SDP for thirty years.
Recall a widely circulated report in the media a few hours
ago that SDP, his acclaimed new party, has banished him for 30 years.
But, in a statement by Hon. Darius Kurah, Publicity
Secretary, Kaduna State Chapter, it said the statement issued by Araba Rufus
Aiyenigba, who claimed to be an official member of the party, was false and
does not represent the party as its National Publicity Secretary, saying the
authentic and duly recognized National Publicity Secretary of the Social
Democratic Party is Amb. Judith Shua’ibu.
“Therefore, any statement issued under Aiyenigba’s name in
that capacity is null, unauthorized, and of no consequence,” it said.
According to the statement, the SDP, as a democratic
institution, operates under a constitution that outlines clear processes for
membership admission and disciplinary action, adding that at no point did
Mallam El-Rufai receive any official query, disciplinary hearing, or expulsion
notice from any legally constituted organ of the party, including his ward or
the National Working Committee (NWC).
It said the claim that Mallam El-Rufai is promoting the
activities of other political parties is baseless and unsubstantiated, adding
that El-Rufai has consistently shown a commitment to good governance and
national discourse but has not claimed or paraded himself as an SDP member in
any official capacity.
“This misleading publication appears to be a politically
motivated attempt to cause confusion within the party and the general public.
It is unfortunate that individuals with no constitutional authority within the
party structure are being used to orchestrate cheap propaganda and character
assassination,” the statement said.
Mallam El-Rufai has formally declared membership of the SDP
and completed the constitutional requirements, such as ward registration. Any
suggestion otherwise is a fabrication aimed at dragging his name into political
speculation.
