A former Kaduna Senator, Shehu Sani, has resigned from the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) which he joined in October 2018 after leaving the All Progressives Congress (APC)
He announced his resignation in a letter dated July 9 and directed to the PRP Chairman in ward six, Tudun Wada, Kaduna.
“I wish to formally notify you of my decision to step aside from the Peoples Redemption Party. This notice takes effect from today”, he said in the letter.
Without stating reasons for his action and if he would immediately join another party, Senator Sani added that he hoped to continue to relate in the spirit of a common struggle, shared history, and common ideological principles.
Some reports on social media had earlier said Sani had been holding consultation with opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party in the state with a view to joining them.
The outspoken former Senator contested and won the Kaduna Central Senatorial District election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on 28 March, 2015.
He has had an enduring animosity against Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, and had announced his decision to leave the APC in a statement lambasting the ruling party.
The statement said “It has become impossible for the Senator to continue to co-habit with reactionaries and their perfidious and inimical style of politics.
Senator Sani maintains the highest respect and honour for President Muhammadu Buhari. However, we prefer to live in a Cottage of Honour rather than a mansion of shame.
“Senator Sani is now free from the toxicity and infamy APC existentially represents. We left the APC for the emperors and their lackeys,” it added.
