KADUNA APC CRISIS: SHEHU SANI FINALLY QUITS PARTY
In what many describe as a break long overdue following the sour relationship between Senator Shehu Sani and the state Governor, Mal. Nasir el-Rufai which saw the Senator criticising several policies of the governor, resulted in open media confrontations.
What finally tore them apart was the refusal of the Senate Committee on Foreign Loans which the Senator chairs.
With the controversies that then trailed the primaries of the APC in the State and following the submission of the name of Uba Sani as the party's candidate to run for the Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Senator Shehu Sani has finally thrown in his resignation as a member of the party.
Senator Sani, in his letter sent to the
chairman of the APC in Ward 6, Tudun Wada in the Kaduna North Local Government Area.
The letter, which is already being circulated widely, reads;
"I present to to you my highest compliments and wish this communication to formally offer to you my resignation from the All Progressives Congress (APC)".
"l had joined the APC and remained with it against all odds in the belief that it will constitute a veritable platform for the realization of those democratic ideals which I hold very dear, that
honor and integrity will be the ultimate ethos of the Party and, most importantly, that internal party
democracy will always be the norm".
"However, only posterity can affirm the extent to which the APC has committed to and reflected these values".
"As I exit the APC at this point in time, I wish to formally thank the party for availing me the platform upon which I am currently serving this country in the honoured capacity of Senator of the
Federal Republic".
"I wish the party well in all her future endeavors and ask sir, that you please accept the assurance of my highest considerations", the letter concluded.
With this development, the Senator may not likely return back to the Hallowed Chambers of the National Assembly in 2019 as it stands.
Has el-Rufai won the war or how will it play out eventually?
The outcome remains to be seen.
