Breaking: Senator Shehu Sani dumps APC
Senator Shehu Sani(Kaduna Central) has resigned his membership of the All Progressives Congress.
The human rights activist who has had a running battle with Governor Nasir El-Rufai wrote the Chairman, APC, Ward 6, Tudun Wada North, Kaduna, to announce his resignation as a member of the party.
The resignation came as a surprise as it was reported that the APC Appeal Committee upheld his candidacy for his present senate seat, instead of Uba Sani, nominee of the governor, who won the primary held in the constituency. Shehu Sani boycotted the direct primary.
The lawmaker sent his resignation letter to the chairman of the APC in ward 6, Tudun wada north, Kaduna.
“I present to you my highest compliments and wish by 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 patty 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 read.
