The All Progressives Congress (APC), Tudun Wada North ward 6 of Kaduna State has suspended Senator Shehu Sani from the party, accusing him of being disloyal to the party and the state Governor Nasir El-Rufai.The letter of suspension dated December 27, 2015, was made available to newsmen on Monday and it was signed by the ward Secretary of the APC, Ahmed Abudulhamid.The letter also accused Senator Sani of factionalising the party in the state.The letter also added that the anti-party activities are so pronounced especially criticising the Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai.“A week hardly passes by without his group going on the air, criticising and challenging the enduring legacies of Mallam Nasir El-Rufai.“That his statement on national issues is not in conformity with that of the state governor and Government of Kaduna State.“That he has remained consistently in confrontation with the good policies of the Government of Kaduna State and considering it anti people’s policy.“In view of the foregoing, we have unanimously agreed that Senator Sani, representing ward six, should be suspended for the period of 11 months and that henceforth, he is disengaged in partaking or attending party activities in Kaduna State subject to other punitive measures respectively,” the letter stressed.However, Senator Sani’s spokesman on politics, Suleiman Ahmed said, “The writers of the letter are ignorant of the constitution of the party. The letter will not deter Senator Sani from challenging governor El-Rufai over any policy that is anti-people.”It will be recalled that Senator Sani and Governor El-Rufai had engaged each other in war of words over what Sani described as El-Rufai’s anti-people policies, particularly the demolition of alleged illegal houses in the state, while the state governor had viewed his attacks as personal and not in conformity with the party’s position and the state government.
