The Senator representing Kaduna
Central Senatorial District at the National Assembly, Shehu Sani, has said that
he and the other aggrieved members of the All Progressives Congress, APC would
no longer remain in the party because they were tired of being treated as
‘slaves.’
Sani said the new National
Chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole, would have resolved the issues
bedevilling the party but assumed power very late.
Addressing reporters in Abuja on
Tuesday, the lawmaker said, “I wish Adams had come earlier because like I said,
these grenades that were laid by the former chairman will explode in a matter
of days.”
Sani said the party leaders
including President Muhammadu Buhari have proved incapable of handling the
crisis.
Sani said, “It is also very clear
to us that even President Muhammadu Buhari is incapable of tackling the menace
of the governor of Kaduna state.
“How can a governor openly call
for violence against Senators and not a statement came from the seat of power
cautioning such a governor?
“How can a governor move
bulldozers and demolish a house of a fellow party member , the one who helped
him to be where he is and there is not even a statement from the presidency?
“The governor uses the machinery
of the state to emasculate political opponents. He even framed me for murder
and there was no statement that came from the presidency to caution such a governor.
“ Virtually, Kaduna state under
governor El- Rufai does not create conducive environment for any of us to
remain in that party (APC).
“There were three attempts to
resolve the Kaduna APC crisis; there was Inuwa Abdulkadir committee which was
never respected by the governor, there was the governor Masari-led committee
which was also not respected and there is, as you can see, Tinubu’s attempt to
reconcile members of the party which was simply naturalized and abandoned.
“So we are not slaves to continue
to be in that party.”
