Shehu Sani denies dumping the APC

Senator Shehu Sani

Senator Shehu Sani (APC Kaduna Central), has denied that he has left the All Progressives Congress (APC) to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Sani was reacting to reports that he has left the ruling party on Friday.

“Clarification: I’m yet to leave the Broomcity FC for the Umbrella united or any other club on the Premier league. Discussion and consultations are ongoing.

“If such will happen, it will be backed by a signed formal letter to the club management; And a formal announcement on the side of the pitch by myself. Thank you,” the lawmaker wrote on his Facebook page.

Members of Akida and Restoration groups of the APC in Kaduna State, on Friday announced their withdrawal from the party. 

The Chairman of the Akida group, Matamaiki Tom-Maiyashi, announced the decision of the two groups at a press conference in Kaduna.

He said they left because the APC was not ready to accommodate alternative opinions, or allow democracy to take its course in the conduct of party affairs.
