Think about the purpose of the nucleus - to retain genetic information, which is used to produce proteins to replace worn out enzymes or similar. A red blood cell can therefore not regenerate itself when damaged, whereas a brain cell can (to an extent - too much damage and even the brain cell will be destroyed). The average lifespan of a red blood cell is 100 days. The average brain cell is with you all your life.
The nucleus is the 'brain' of the cell. It tells the cell what to do.

Why do you expect them not to have nucleus?! Every cell has a nucleus. Red Blood Cells don't becuz they're specified to have more Hb to carry O2. White Blood Cells in common with many other cells have nucleus to control their activities, regulate their secretory, in one word, to arrange their life! White Blood Cells have nucleus due to below reasons: -they must have antibodies to detect antgenes and prevent them from teasing us! [these antibodies are protein based and they're built from a genetic code which is in the nucleus!] -they must have nucleus to regulate their growth, cell division, and differention in order to build plasmocytes and memory cells. -They must have, to secrete antibodies to attack antigenes.[must have genes to be transcripted to mRNA and at last be translated on Ribosomes which are located on RERs.]
