Governor El-rufai Is A Failure, He Hasn’t Achieved Anything

The Senator representing Kaduna Central at the National Assembly, Shehu Sani, has described the state Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, as “unpopular.” Sani, who is contesting for the Senate on the People’s Redemption Party platform, also said the governor had not achieved anything since 2015. The senator had dumped the All Progressives Congress for the PRP three days after he was denied the ticket to contest for the Senate on the APC platform. His rift with the state governor was believed to have cost him the ticket. Speaking on Nigeria 2019, an Arise TV programme on Thursday, Sani said the PRP was a major threat to the APC in Kaduna State, saying, “This is why every morning and evening, they destroy our billboards and tear our posters. They are persecuting our members. If we were inconsequential, they would have ignored us.” Sani alleged that, the fact that “el-Rufai had a hand” in denying him the APC ticket didn’t mean anything. He said, “The question is, can he win? The fact is that he is one of the most unpopular governors in the history of Kaduna State. “The President (Muhammadu Buhari) has been to the state for many times, but how many times have you seen him inaugurating a project in the state? “The first time the President went there, he was given a honorary degree from a university that had not started a PhD programme; the second time he was in the state was to inaugurate Olam, a company from Singapore. “The third time was to inaugurate a project by the Ministry of Transport. So, he (el-Rufai) has not done anything and we are going to remove him out of power. That is a fact.” The lawmaker explained that he and el-Rufai had always been at daggers drawn because of their differences both politically and ideologically. He said, “Politically, he is a product of the establishment. Out of what they say is the 16-year tragedy of the Peoples Democratic Party, he spent 14 or 15 years there as a member, from the regime of (former President Olusegun) Obasanjo, where he held different positions. So, he was part of the system before he joined the APC. “All my life, I have been a freedom fighter, that is, a human rights activist. Most of the years under military rule, I spent my time in prison. From this angle, you can see where we differ.” Sani said the adoption of the Muslim-Muslim ticket by el-Rufai for the forthcoming governorship election in the state also showed that the governor “is arrogant and haughty.” “For a governor of a state who came into office with a Muslim-Christian ticket now going for a second term and saying some people don’t matter, I don’t want to be associated with that kind of person, because all I know is that, with all his arrogance, haughtiness and egoism as a governor, power is ephemeral. “There is a time he will be out of office and he will account for whatever he has done,” Sani stated. https://all-gists.blogspot.com/2019/01/gov-el-rufai-is-failure-he-hasnt-achieved-anything-sen-shehu-sani.html

Gov Rochas Okorocha denies dumping APC

“Now our response to the unfounded story; Imo people do not support stolen tickets and that is why all those who stole the guber tickets of their parties for the 2019 election cannot fly. They have become stranded and looking for who to blame for their woes or misfortune. They know this fact. Imo people do not support anything stolen. That was the reason they dealt with 419ers in 1997”. The statement read further that, “it was out of frustration that those concerned came up with the story of Governor Okorocha leaving APC for AA, which is not true. “With the ill-gotten ticket, they have also seen that the sound of bitter-kola in the mouth does not reflect its real taste. They used blackmail and what they know how to do best to get the ticket of the party and their challenge now is how to convince Imo people to vote for them. “In their blackmail in Abuja they told their audience that they would win Imo without Rochas Okorocha. Then, if that is true why are they still bothered about R...
