Shehu Sani Sends Message To Nigerian Youths Ahead Of February 25th Election

Former Senator Representing Kaduna Central at the National Assembly, Shehu Sani, has taken to social media to admonish Nigerian youths ahead of the February 25th presidential election.

42 days ahead of the 2023 general elections, the former lawmaker, via his verified Twitter page on Thursday evening, observed that the Nigerian youths constitute a chunk of the total registered voters across states.

Sani urged the youths to take advantage of the figures at the forthcoming polls to take back their country with their Permanent Voter Cards (PVC) or continue to live their lives protesting as usual.

He also said the choice is theirs to make or live fighting with placards. Sani’s tweet reads: “The Nigerian Youth constitute the majority of the 93 million registered voters. The choices are yours: to take back your country with your votes or to live the rest of your lives with placards and Aluta solidarity songs and gbosa, gbosa mentality.”

In another post earlier, the former lawmaker charged the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) and the Nurses Association (NANNM), to invite all 2023 Presidential candidates for a complete medical test, and make the result public.

This, according to him, will settle the controversy over the health status of the contenders.

Ex-Deputy Governor Vows To End APC Reign In Jigawa

Mahmud stated this while reacting to Governor Mohammed Badaru’s statement that he (Mahmud) is unreliable.

Badaru, during a political rally further stated that APC would send the PDP to its early grave in 2023. The former Deputy Governor, in his reaction, said, “I want to assure you that tsunami will hit the ruling APC.

“I have already contacted my political allies and other good people of Jigawa state in APC, all have agreed to dump the party and join PDP in order to salvage our dear state.”

Mahmud noted, “In the last eight years APC has destroyed all the foundation of peace and progress Jigawa state had built.”

The politician claimed that the ruling party had taken the state backwards, adding that Jigawa is on the brink of total collapse.

Mahmud added, “APC and its clueless leaders had deceived me and other people of the state with empty promises, today everyone has known APC to be a collection of unpatriotic, greedy, and self-centred people, therefore no one will trust them again.

“My stay in the APC was full of pains and agonies, whenever I saw how my dear state was deteriorating as a result of poor policies and bad governance, I shade tears.”

He promised to work with PDP members and the good people of the state to ensure that the party wins in 2023.
