Shehu Sani Accuses Ex-Governor El-Rufai Of Failing to Address Insecurity In Kaduna

A former lawmaker, Shehu Sani, has suggested that powerful forces may be linked to the surge in kidnappings and terrorism in Kaduna State.

Sani accused the former governor, Nasir El-rufai, of failing to address the security challenges in Kaduna State.

He called on the Federal Government to promptly intervene and take decisive action against terrorism in the state

Speaking with Trust TV’s ‘Daily Politics’ program, Sani said: “Kaduna is the only state where you have consistency in kidnapping in schools. Terrorists attacked Greenfield University and kidnapped and killed students.

“They also attacked Bethel Baptist School in Kajuru, where they killed and kidnapped students. Same with the College of Agric and Mechanisation.

“These are all incidents that happened within Kaduna State alone and the governor of the past has done nothing, so it is time for the federal government to come to the aid of Kaduna State and save us from the hands of terrorists and bandits

“In Bethel Baptist High School, I was there after the kidnapping happened and I saw how women sold their homes, lands, and personal possessions to gather money and pay ransom and the state government in Kaduna did nothing at that time.

“Over N280 million was gathered by the parents of the students and given to terrorists.

“If there are no powerful forces behind these terrorists, where does the money go?”

Kanyi Daily recalls that Shehu Sani had likened merging People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with Labour Party (LP) supporters to fitting a Ferrari engine into a Peugeot vehicle.
