Shehu Sani Tackles Buhari, Jonathan Over ‘politicised’ N-power, SURE-P by ManirBK: 6:25am On Nov 09, 2018
The senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has criticised the N-Power programme introduced by the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration,saying it is used as a means of maintaining grassroot political support.

The senator shared the same view on the SURE-P program of the former administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Mr Sani, who left the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) some weeks ago, was reacting to an allegation that the disbursement of the N-power fund has been politicised.

Senate Minority Leader, Biodun Olujimi, said, on Wednesday, that the fund had been “politicised” and its beneficiaries were asked to submit details of their permanent voter’s cards (PVCs).

She said officials disbursing the fund were circulating forms on which recipients are asked to write their names, gender and details of their PVCs.

She said such forms are accompanied by another from Access Bank containing details of payment.

The Senate has decided to investigate the allegation setting up a seven-man committee to do the job.

In a press statement on Thursday, Mr Sani, a member of the ad-hoc committee, hit hard at both the Buhari and Jonathan administrations on the motives of their social intervention programs.

The statement reads: “The SURE-P program of the last administration and NSIP of this administration are not social intervention programs but political largesse dispensed for political goals.

“The two programs are aimed at throwing hands outs and crumbs to the masses with the aim of pacifying them and retaining their support for the political establishment and the ruling parties.

“The ideological basis and reasoning of both the SURE-P and NSIP programs is to reinforce the iniquities, inequalities and plunder inherent in the prevailing socio economic system that institutionalised the class privilege of a few against a many.”

Instead of being disbursed to the vulnerable, Mr Sani said the funds were channelled at grassroot political supporters to “neutralise possible resistance”.

“The SURE-P programs was designed to build up the grassroots support base of the PDP and the N Power was designed to build the grassroots support base of the APC.

“SURE-P AND NSIP are institutionalised state generosities and philanthropy presented as social intervention while actually intended to neutralise mass resistance against social injustice and inequality presided over by the political establishment and the ruling elites.

“SURE-P and N power are all hands outs thrown to the poor ‘to purchase their conscience and loyalty’

“SURE-P was a larcenous bread of corruption and N Power is a butter of social deceit.

“Nigeria’s poverty problems can’t be solved by a ration system of throwing peanuts.

“N-Power is a repackaged SURE-P program that only encourages the culture of social dependency on state handouts,” he said.

Dear senator shehu Sani you are one of the senators i love and respect so much but I must confessed that your assumption on this Npower program is not correct. This is the first time that I am very proud of a govt initiative that is very free and fair.The present govt may have gotten other things wrong but they deserve some accolade on this Npower program. Please do not politicise it sir. When we talk of the Nigeria we dream of this is one of those things we want to see in the future. A Nigeria where everyone has equal privilege and opportunity without having to know one politician, uncle or Godfather.

If concerning Npower, he got it wrong because I have never seen transparency in recruiting process like npower. If recruitment process in Nigeria is like that of npower, our country would have been the best, nothing would be like god father

At least N-power is transparent and has real and direct beneficiaries, unlike Sure - P, whose beneficiaries were the governors and their cronies.

You are right sir :It is all a political strategy to pacify people at the grassroots by giving them handouts and crumbs . Of recent people were in jubilation of "Tradermoni" which gives loans of 10k to traders but forgetting the fact that 10k can do nothing in today's society.

Pmb did not politicised the social intervention programme, every beneficiaries can feel it, they are not selected the way the PDP selected surep that the beneficiaries were not sure of, they were selected by government officials unlike Npower that is online, even some of BUHARI's critics are currently enjoying it, some of them are secretly applying for it but will come online and claim big boys. This is the first time that the poor will be collecting what was stolen from them by the elites

It seems APC has stolen your brain as well as your conscience. Please what sort of business will 10k start up for you in today's Nigeria ? If the government is truly sincere in elevating the status of Nigerians and Nigeria , then they should give more than 50k as loan . Even the so called N-power has its bias ...because the same beneficiaries you claim are not even up to 4% of the entire population of which the bulk still fall within the poverty stream.
