According to a report, while speaking at the All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders meeting held at the Murtala Mohammed Square, Kaduna, El-Rufai warned that he was ready to confront whoever tests his will as the leader of the party in the state.
NAIJ.com gathered that the former minister of the federal capital territory, however, urged all warring factions of the party to sheath their swords and unite for the development of the party in the state.
He said: “I had fought with two presidents. Umaru Yar’Adua ended in his grave while President Goodluck Jonathan ended in Otueke.
“Let us forget our differences and work for the development of the party. If you are not willing to stop the fight, you should know that I am a dogged fighter.
“I implore you to tell me the wrong I did to you and I will apologize. But if it goes beyond today, I will never tender apology.”
