El-Rufai: You Cannot Demolish My House And Expect Me And My Relations To Vote For Your Party – Mahdi

In an interview on Symfoni TV on Sunday, November 1, 2026, Mahdi Shehu, an activist and public affairs analyst, discussed the political implications of the disagreements between former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Shehu spoke about the consequences of political disagreements and how actions taken against political figures could affect their relationships with political parties. He explained that political loyalty should not be taken for granted, particularly when individuals feel unfairly treated by those in power.

Speaking during the interview, Shehu stated, “You cannot demolish my house and expect me and my relations to vote for your party.” He made the statement while discussing the grievances associated with El-Rufai and the possible consequences of his disagreements with the political establishment.

The activist used the situation to illustrate how personal experiences and perceived injustices can influence political decisions. He suggested that individuals who feel victimised by a political party may find it difficult to continue supporting that party, including members of their families and associates.

His comments come amid political developments surrounding El-Rufai and the changing relationships among prominent political figures ahead of the 2027 general elections.

He concluded that political parties should understand that the treatment of their members and former allies can have consequences for their political relationships, as personal grievances may influence the decisions of those who previously supported them.
