Shehu Sani, the senator
representing Kaduna Central, says governors under the All Progressives Congress
(APC) have no respect for President Muhammadu Buhari.
Speaking on the ongoing crisis
rocking the ruling party, Sani said National Leader, Bola Tinubu had done his
best to resolve the crisis that forced him out of the party but that Tinubu did
not achieve much because he is not from the north.
The Kaduna lawmaker claimed
President Buhari and the National Chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole were
too weak and have succumbed to the powers of the governors.
Sani in an interview with The
Nation said: “I must be very frank with you, Tinubu has done his best but there
is a limit to what he can do.
“He isn’t from the North and has
a lot of issues to attend to but what was very clear, I won’t rain insults on
the President or Chairman of the party, but what I would say is that their
weaknesses, their vulnerability, their failures have been evident in the very
sense that they were helpless in the face of firepower by the state governors.
“The Buhari administration is now
run by invisible forces and has disconnected from the vision it started with.
“If you look at his attitude to
governance and his philosophy of being for everybody and nobody has led the
party nowhere and it is also leading the party nowhere
“If you are a leader, you cannot
preside over a nation by body language or side language. You have to take decisions,
you have to be decisive. You don’t also have to depend on the decisions of
others but you can consult others for the decisions which you are going to
take.
“The governors under the APC
today don’t respect President Buhari; they have no respect for him and they
don’t share what his philosophy is all about.
“While the chairman of the party
sees the need to preserve the loyal band within the party, the governors don’t
see the need for it. They want to plant their stooges. As far as I am
concerned, the seat that I occupy, the Kaduna Central senatorial seat, Nasir el
Rufai is putting a stooge there to keep the place for him so that after he is
out of government, he can also be a senator.
“The governors see senatorial
seats as places they should preserve for their future and that’s why you find
some people going to the national assembly without standing up to do their work
as parliamentarians, because they were there standing in for somebody.”
Recall that Sani sometime last
month resigned his membership of the ruling APC and joined the Peoples
Redemption Party (PRP) due to injustice in the party.
