[Hon. Mohammed Bello El-Rufai @B_ELRUFAI]

In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. A few hours ago, the Rt. Hon. Speaker of the 10th House of Representatives, Hon. Tajudeen Abbas GCON, announced my letter of resignation from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and my formal move to the African Democratic Congress (ADC) at plenary. I am now a member of the ADC, and I will be seeking re‑election to continue representing the good people of Kaduna North Federal Constituency on this platform.

I am joined in this new chapter by our respected elder, Hon. Engr. Suleiman Richifa, representing Soba, and my dear brother, Hon. Umar Ajilo, representing Makarfi/Kudan, who both defected from their previous parties to the African Democratic Congress. Together, we are building a home for progressive, people‑focused service.

This decision was not taken lightly. As a proud son of Mallam Nasir @elrufai, I am guided by courage, conviction, and the unshakable belief that our people deserve the very best. To the people of Kaduna North: our work continues, and it will not stop. We will never compromise on delivering quality representation. There is still so much to do.

By the grace of God, I will soon announce the ad hoc committee for the Primary Health Care initiative I unveiled last week. We will be equipping Primary Health Care Centres with medical supplies, starting with 1,000 syringes per PHC and other essential items. Phase I begins with two centres: Unguwar Sarki Ward and Badarawa/Malali Ward.

May Allah SWT continue to guide us as we serve the people. And may He bless Nigeria with the best leaders.

Clarification on My Political Position

We have noted recent media reports and discussions suggesting a possible realignment within the African Democratic Congress (ADC) due to the current challenges facing the party.

In light of the misleading narratives in the public domain, I wish to state categorically that no final decision has been taken regarding my political future or that of my political associates.

The recent Supreme Court judgment, while affirming the legitimacy of the David Mark-led National Working Committee (NWC), also remitted the matter back to the High Court. This has left the party in a precarious position.

In addition, the Federal High Court has recently ruled to delegitimise the party’s recent convention. The Attorney General of the Federation has also strangely applied to a Federal High Court to deregister the ADC.

We left the NNPP due to externally influenced legal problems that made our stay perilous. The ADC has now been also forced into this difficulty.

Consequently, like other major stakeholders, we have commenced wide-ranging consultations — including with leaders from the NDC, PRP and others to explore the best options for protecting our democratic interests. We shall announce our decision in the soonest possible time.

On the issue of presidential candidacy, I wish to recall my consistent record as a committed democrat. In the 2014 APC presidential primary, I came second to President Muhammadu Buhari (whom I fully supported to victory), with Atiku Abubakar third, Rochas Okorocha fourth, and the late Sam Nda-Isaiah fifth. Similarly, in 2019, I contested the PDP presidential ticket and immediately supported the winner, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, serving as the campaign’s coordinator in the North. I have always placed national interest and party unity above personal ambition.

Furthermore, the ADC is yet to zone its presidential ticket or take any decision on a candidate. I have therefore neither declared any intention to run for president nor endorsed any aspirant. All speculations to the contrary are premature and unfounded.

My absence from the two recent ADC stakeholders’ meetings was due to unavoidable personal commitments. I promptly communicated my apologies to the party leadership.

We shall continue to engage constructively at all levels. Any definitive position on our political direction will be communicated formally through official channels at the appropriate time.

NIGERIA UPDATE - Nigeria’s Growth Crisis Is a Talent-Allocation Crisis - by: Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai - 1st April, 2026 - Part 1

Nigeria is often described as a paradox. We are a nation of extraordinary human capital—energetic, inventive, resilient—yet our economic outcomes fall persistently short of our potential. Growth remains shallow, productivity weak, firms struggle to scale, and prosperity does not spread widely enough.

Today, I want to advance a clear and uncomfortable proposition:

Nigeria’s growth problem is not primarily a shortage of talent, capital, or ideas.
It is a problem of where our best talent goes—and why.

This is not a moral argument about individuals. It is a political-economy argument about incentives.

1. The Core Insight: Talent Follows Returns

Across societies and across history, highly capable people choose occupations that offer the highest returns to ability, especially where small differences in skill translate into large rewards. Economists describe this as increasing returns to talent.

When those returns are highest in entrepreneurship, innovation, and production, economies grow.
When those returns are highest in rent-seeking—activities that redistribute existing wealth rather than create new value—growth slows or stalls .

People do not wake up intending to harm their country. They respond rationally to incentives.

So the right question for Nigeria is not “Why are people corrupt?”
It is: “What activities does our system reward most handsomely?”

2. Nigeria’s Current Incentive Structure

Let us be honest about Nigeria’s reality.
•GDP growth was about 4.1% in 2024, respectable on paper but insufficient for a country with our demographics.
•GDP per capita remains around US$1,084, placing Nigeria among lower-income economies despite our scale.
•Informal employment accounts for roughly 93% of the labour force, meaning most firms are small, fragile, and defensive rather than scalable.
•Nigeria’s tax-to-GDP ratio is only about 8.2%, one of the lowest in Africa—signalling weak fiscal capacity and heavy reliance on discretionary collection rather than broad, rule-based taxation.

These numbers are not abstract. They describe an economy where scale is risky, visibility attracts predation, and long-term investment struggles to compete with short-term access.

In such an environment, the most capable Nigerians often find that the fastest and safest returns come not from building large, productive enterprises—but from proximity to state power, regulatory discretion, political brokerage, or legal and administrative contestation.

This is exactly the mechanism identified in the economic literature: when the “market” for rent-seeking is large, talent flows there .

3. Why Rent-Seeking Damages Growth

Rent-seeking harms an economy in three cumulative ways.

First, it absorbs labour and capital without creating output. Resources are spent competing over existing wealth rather than expanding the economic frontier.

Second, it acts like a tax on productive activity. Businesses face delays, uncertainty, informal payments, and arbitrary enforcement—raising costs and discouraging investment.

Third—and most damaging—it diverts the very people who would otherwise be the most productive entrepreneurs and innovators.

When the brightest minds are pulled away from production, the quality of entrepreneurship falls, technological progress slows, and the economy’s long-run growth rate declines .

This is why rent-seeking does not merely lower income levels; it can permanently reduce growth.
