Senator Shehu Sani joins PRP, To Contest Senatorial Seat

The Senator representing Kaduna Central senatorial district, Sen Shehu Sani, has, on Tuesday, pitched his tent with People’s Redemption Party, days after he dumped the All Progressive Congress (APC)

The embattled senator will be contesting for his seat in the national Assembly on the platform of his new political party.

The Senator, in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja by Mr Suleiman Ahmed, his Special Adviser, Political and Ideology.

He said that “It has become impossible for the senator to continue to co-habit with reactionaries and their perfidious and inimical style of politics.

“Sen. Sani maintains the highest respect and honour for President Muhammadu Buhari. However, we prefer to live in a Cottage of Honour than a mansion of shame.

“Sen. Shehu Sani has returned to the PRP. PRP represents our socialist revolutionary ideology.

“Sen. Sani is now free from the toxicity and infamy APC existentially represents. We left the APC for the emperors and their lackeys.”

Dr Tom Maiyashi, the state chairman of the party, in a conversation with NAN, confirmed the membership of the senator.

Maiyashi said the lawmaker had been duly registered and offered membership card of the party.

He stressed that “Sen. Shehu Sani has registered with the party and his ward is Kaduna South.’’

NAN reports that Sani on Sunday resigned from the All Progressives Congress.
