Senator Shehu Sani representing Kaduna Central senatorial zone has been suspended by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Tudun Wada ward of Kaduna state on Monday.
He was suspended for anti party activities and for criticism of Governor Nasir El-Rufai's policies. He has been banned from party activities for eleven months.
In a letter to El-Rufai signed by Ahmed Abdulhamid, the secretary of the ward, Auwal Mai Anguwa, the public relations officer, and Aminu Alilan, ex-officio member, the party stated Sani's offences " “violate the
rules of engagement of the party, factionalizing the party, and engaging in anti-party activities by criticizing the policies of Governor Nasir El-Rufai.”
In a reaction, Sani's aide, Suleiman Ahmed stated that those who wrote the letter are trying to stop Sani from voicing out over the anti people policies of El-Rufai's government.
“They are toeing the line of the state
secretariat of the party.
“So our reaction is that those that wrote this letter are ignorant of the party’s constitution and they are dancing to the tune of the state
executive of the party and Governor Nasir El-Rufai,” Ahmed added.
