The senator representing Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has revealed that President Muhammmadu Buhari and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, delayed his exit from the ruling party.
Sani dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC), after he lost the party’s senatorial ticket to El-Rufai’s candidate, Uba Sani, despite the promise of automatic ticket by the National Working Committee (NWC).
The lawmaker, who recently joined the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), while speaking on Sunday Politics, a Channels Television programme, denied demanding automatic ticket from the APC.
“There was no time I demanded that I should be given automatic ticket. Last July, there was an uprising in the national party whereby legislators decided to decamp and I was part of the team but I was held back through the intervention of Bola Tinubu and President Buhari.
“They gave me the assurance that the issues prompting me to leave the party will be addressed.
“There were discussions and promises whereby those of us who have raised issues of problems with governors of our state will be addressed”. He said.
