Igbokwe in a post on his Facebook lamented how the ruling party had ignored El-Rufai without thinking of how the party got to its current level.
He described the former governor as a fearless leader, key player and organizer.
Igbokwe said: “I do not know why the leadership of APC Nigeria thinks that a scholar with huge brain, a bold thinker, a fearless leader, a facilitator, a key player, a team player, organizer like Mallam El-Rufai can just be ignored as if we do not know how we got here.”
El-Rufai has faced a hard time following the end of his term as Kano governor in 2023.
A founding member of the APC, he was nominated for a ministerial role but the Senate failed to clear him.
El-Rufai’s successor, Governor Sani Uba’s administration had instituted a probe against him over alleged misappropriation of funds while in office.
