Shehu Sani explains why he honoured EFCC invitation

Senator Shehu Sani who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly between 2015 and 2019 has shed more light on his invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) .

An aide to the senator , Suleiman …….who spoke exclusively to Saharareporters said that the lawmaker decided to honour the invitation ahead of time to give his own side of what transpired between him and Alhaji Sani Dauda , Owner of ASD Motors.

He narrated that the senator at a time on his own volition went to sympathise with ASD over his arrest regarding a marital issue involving his daughter inlaw.

That ASD had approached him to change his old Peugeot to new model and also insisted that he can make the payment on two instalments.  They agreed on 508 model which cost $17million.

Suleiman stated that Sani had made the initial deposit of $25,000 in two tranchesof $12,000 and $13,000 respectively.

According Suleiman ” At a point ASD went to Saudi Arabia for Lesser Hajj and gave  the senator a proforma invoice with an account number  that If he has the balance he can pay into the account.

He explained that recently ASD put several phone calls to the lawmaker not to show up at the EFCC when he is being called upon.  He wondered why ASD went to lodge a complaint at the anti graft agency and at the same time asked Sani not to honour the invitation.

His words  ” The senator became confused and sceptical about the calls from ASD. He sensed that something is fishy.  The EFCC asked him to come on Thursday 2nd January 2020 but he decided to go there today Tuesday 31st  December to state his own side of story ”

He alleged that ASD must have been influenced by some people achieve a purpose
