Shehu Sani returns to APC as Kaduna governor promises fairness

Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has assured the 50 political stalwarts that defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State that they will enjoy the same rights and privileges like every other party member.

Prominent amongst those who decamped to the APC are former Governor of Kaduna State, Muktar Ramalan Yero, Senator Shehu Sani, Senator Suleiman Hunkuyi, the gubernatorial candidate of NNPP in the last election and Alhaji Sani Shaaban, a former gubernatorial candidate.

Others are Senator Danjuma Laah, who represented Zone 3 at the upper legislative chamber on the platform of PDP, Abubakar Mustapha, the former National Organising Secretary of PDP and Ambassador Sule Buba, former Nigerian envoy to South Korea.

The governor, who addressed a crowd of party supporters at Murtala Square at the mega rally held on Saturday, said that there is no difference between a party member that joins today and the ones that have been in APC ten years ago.

Sani told the decampees to notify their supporters of the readiness of APC to accept them into the party as their doors are still open to accept more defectors.

According to him, the popularity and acceptability of APC is because of its just leadership at both the state and federal levels, adding that the party has come to stay in Kaduna State, the entire north and Nigeria as a whole.

”In 2027 election, the electorate will vote for APC in all the elections, from top to bottom. At the top, our leader, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will be elected. At the state level, the party will be voted for at the gubernatorial, National and State Assembly elections, by the Grace of God,” he said.

The Governor promised that projects will be executed in all the nooks and crannies of Kaduna State, irrespective of party affiliations and ethno-religious considerations.

”Politics is different from governance. We will be fair to all, whether or not they voted for us, because that is the oath of office that we swore to uphold as leaders,” he said.

Sani, who argued that leaders are not infallible and are bound to make mistakes like anyone, pleaded with the led to always point out their mistakes to correct them.

The Governor reminded the crowd that leaders will be held accountable in the hereafter regarding how they led the people whom God had entrusted to them
