The Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani has stated that the governor of Kaduna State’s leaked memo criticising President Muhammadu Buhari of being a failure was dubious and self-serving.

He alleged that the Governor’s secret memo condemning Mr. President and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) was a manifestation of Nasir El-Rufa’i’s attempt to dust a popular sympathy and carve an image of a ‘competent alternative’ to President Buhari come 2019.

In his instagram page on Saturday, the human rights activist who has been having brushes with El-Rufai said: “Now El-Rufai has cunningly criticised the President and the party, disguised it as a memo and leaked to the Press; that also qualified him as disloyal and disrespectful.‎

“That means logically, he is now leaking memo to dust popular sympathy and carve an image of a competent alternative to President Buhari”.

Sani wondered how Kaduna governor insisted that he should be ostracized from the party for speaking his opinion on fundamental issues of governance.

He urged the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to punish El-Rufai for the height of disrespect to Mr. President and the party, insisting that it was time the Party began to decode the message embedded in the El-Rufai letter.
