The Senator representing Kaduna Central at the National Assembly, Shehu Sani, has described the state Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, as “unpopular.”

Sani, who is contesting for the Senate on the People’s Redemption Party platform, also said the governor had not achieved anything since 2015.

The senator had dumped the All Progressives Congress for the PRP three days after he was denied the ticket to contest for the Senate on the APC platform.

His rift with the state governor was believed to have cost him the ticket.

Speaking on Nigeria 2019, an Arise TV programme on Thursday, Sani said the PRP was a major threat to the APC in Kaduna State, saying, “This is why every morning and evening, they destroy our billboards and tear our posters. They are persecuting our members. If we were inconsequential, they would have ignored us.”

Sani alleged that, the fact that “el-Rufai had a hand” in denying him the APC ticket didn’t mean anything.

He said, “The question is, can he win? The fact is that he is one of the most unpopular governors in the history of Kaduna State.

“The President (Muhammadu Buhari) has been to the state for many times, but how many times have you seen him inaugurating a project in the state?

“The first time the President went there, he was given a honorary degree from a university that had not started a PhD programme; the second time he was in the state was to inaugurate Olam, a company from Singapore.

“The third time was to inaugurate a project by the Ministry of Transport. So, he (el-Rufai) has not done anything and we are going to remove him out of power. That is a fact.”

The lawmaker explained that he and el-Rufai had always been at daggers drawn because of their differences both politically and ideologically.

He said, “Politically, he is a product of the establishment. Out of what they say is the 16-year tragedy of the Peoples Democratic Party, he spent 14 or 15 years there as a member, from the regime of (former President Olusegun) Obasanjo, where he held different positions. So, he was part of the system before he joined the APC.

“All my life, I have been a freedom fighter, that is, a human rights activist. Most of the years under military rule, I spent my time in prison. From this angle, you can see where we differ.”

Sani said the adoption of the Muslim-Muslim ticket by el-Rufai for the forthcoming governorship election in the state also showed that the governor “is arrogant and haughty.”

“For a governor of a state who came into office with a Muslim-Christian ticket now going for a second term and saying some people don’t matter, I don’t want to be associated with that kind of person, because all I know is that, with all his arrogance, haughtiness and egoism as a governor, power is ephemeral.

“There is a time he will be out of office and he will account for whatever he has done,” Sani stated.

El Rufai is a devil.

Are u just knknowing this?

zombies are the only once seeing apc's achievements like hd tv
while we sain nigerians are preparing to pvc's to vote them out 4 doing nothing,
are my speaking the minds of sain nigerians

Who cares about that after I don't leave in kadanu

I doubt it

GOD ALMIGHTY IS set to Intervene in Nigeria's Affair

Completely true

The Christian southern kaduna has little to no projects

His son runs the major contracts

El Rufai understands the northern folks, all he has to do is whip up religious sentiments, it's a well tested and trusted method, sure a few people would have to die but the dogs and baboons gotta bleed

Confirmed failure cum terrorist.

while some pple drink portable water,some chooses to drink dirty water with the believe that disease does not kill an african. So
If you want suffering and poverty then go the PMB way.while those that want the opposite should go with Atiku and PDP.

Mr useless man, what did u achieve through your stay in Senate

True.

Your head get oil... True talk bro

So true. Sadly I voted ElRufai thinking he'd make Kaduna great again alas he's leaving it worst than he met it.

Because him and his master are busy bigotry and hating.. How can they develop?

welcome to apc

Because of parochialism and tribalism some people don de propose Osinbajo and El Rufai 2023.

Nothing person no go hear.

Tell that to the dullard

Elrufai is nothing but an agent of darkness. He has made Kaduna a hell by sacking over 50000 civil servants since he came into power. He doesn't deserve even a second after May 29, 2019.
Sai Ashiru!

Its only those living in the South west that believe Elrufai is workong. since 2015 till now not a single thing to show. Even NamadibSambo is better than Elrufai. Imagine out of wickedness he pull out the Sure-P buses that was used to break the monopoly of Bus owners plying the Kaduna town to Sabo road.

you will wait forever

Gov El rufai is a contused midget.

Only people outside Kaduna think Elrufai is working. She's Sani is on point here. the Govt controls the media and hence propagate fake Govt achievements.

1. How can a reasonable governor look at a people with 11lgas in a State with 23lgas and say they don't matter?
2. Bill Gates gave him money to roll back malaria. he dug gutters everywhere in Kaduna town and abandoned them. now they are breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
3. Every year, Kaduna State indigent students used to be entitled to 15k for science students and 9k for arts. Since Elrufai came, he stopped it claiming he wants to improve it.
4. Apart from the patching of roads, no single road has been started and completed in Kaduna for the past 3 n half yrs.
5. He sacked over 22000 teachers of Primary schools without having contingent plans on ground. months after their sack was when he employed abt 15000, many of whom have abandoned the job haven stayed for over 6 months without salaries. the primary schools are simply a shadow of themselves.
6. apart from teachers, he sacked thousands in other institutions and agencies and till today, they have not been paid off.
7. He has bastertized the Chiefdoms of Southern Kaduna people, abolishing some and turning others to Emirates.
8. he said the usual annual leave grant given to state workers by previous Govt was a mere privilege and not a right. He thus refused paying them that of 2018
9. and for the first time in history of Kaduna democracy, a Muslim Muslim ticket is being used. this is after he said he will demolish an entire Christian settlement just to whip up sentiments from his fanatical Almajiris.

I can go on and on but even the greatest fool knows that Elrufai is the greatest evil and most divisive element we have in Kaduna today. However, since most northern Muslims are fanatics, many Wil vote him and since again he is using divide and rule tactics in Southern Kaduna, he will get a handful of votes there as well, But God helping us, we will vote him out.
