We Must Now Name Those Who Brought Nigeria on its Knees – Sani

Senator Shehu Sani from Kaduna State has asked Nigeria to name those who allegedly destroyed Nigeria and put the country in its current sorry state. 

Sani said this Friday morning, barely 24 hours after immediate past governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole, named former military rulers and the elite as those fanning the embers of disunity in the country. 

Sani on his tweeter handle said the country must now look beyond the narrative of telling the world how poor it is. Rather, it must now reveal the names of those who caused the country’s poverty.

“Telling the world that we are poor is the narrative,telling the world the names of those who made us poor is the courage,” Sani said. 

Oshiomhole had, while speaking at the first Samuel Osaigbovo Ogbemudia memorial lecture, tagged: ‘Nation Building and Development in Nigeria’ and organised by the University of Abuja on Thursday, April 6, 2017, revealed that the country was plagued by former retired military officers and elites who supervised the restructuring of Nigeria from three regions to 37 states.
