The former lawmaker representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Senator Shehu Sani, has lambasted former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, over his recent political remarks.
Sani opined that the former governor practiced tyranny while
in power, expressing surprise that El-Rufai now preaches democracy after
leaving office.
On Monday, at an event in Abuja, Nasir El-Rufai accused his
party, the All Progressives Congress, of abandoning its founding principles and
promoting poor leadership.
El-Rufai further stated, “You cannot afford to have illiterates,
semi-illiterates, and cunning people as your leaders. This is why we end up
with the poor leadership we have today.”
Reacting to El-Rufai’s comments in a telephone interview on
Tuesday, Shehu Sani observed, “The man with a history of undisguised
intolerance to the opposition and a hypersensitive allergy to criticisms has no
moral or saintly authority to stand on the pulpit of democracy to preach about
good governance.”
Shehu Sani said that El-Rufai demonized the opposition while
in power but now embraces them in the wilderness, adding, “El-Rufai’s behavior
is like someone bitter over rejection. If Nasir El-Rufai is in a Keke Napep, he
will call it a Lamborghini; if he is thrown out of the Lamborghini, he will
call it a Keke Napep.”
Sani alleged that, according to El-Rufai, Tinubu’s
government today is led by illiterates because they refused to appoint
Professor Nasiru, whom Sani claimed “left behind a heap of garbage in Kaduna
and is now preaching hygiene in Nigeria.”
