Former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai has withdrawn his nomination to serve as a minister in the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Premium Times reports.



Also, the ex-governor recommended a replacement to serve as a minister.

Quoting a source from the presidency, the online newspaper said El-Rufai had informed President Tinubu that he would no longer consider his nomination as a minister in the government.

El-Rufai reportedly assured Tinubu that he would continue contributing his quota to national development as a private citizen.

The report said El-Rufai has recommended Jafaru Ibrahim Sani, who served as commissioner in three ministries: local government education and Environment in Kaduna State, as a replacement.

The Daily Post recalls that the confirmation of El-Rufai and two other ministerial nominees by the Senate was delayed on the grounds of insecurity.

The Senate transmitted 45 confirmed nominees to the President.
