Buhari supporters, henchmen no longer have say in APC – Shehu Sani

• He said Buharist are now being treated with disdain
• He disclosed that they are also being purged from the party

Former lawmaker Shehu Sani has said those loyal to President Muhammadu Buhari in the All Progressives Congress (APC) are now being treated with disdain and no longer have a say in the party.

Sani said this in reaction to the resignation of Abdullahi Adamu as the National Chairman of the party.

Within Nigeria had reported that Adamu, the erstwhile APC chairman, tendered his resignation letter on Sunday night.

Following the development, Senator Abubakar Kyari, APC Deputy National Chairman (North), has taken over the affairs of the party.

Adamu is purported to be a loyalist of the former president.

It was alleged that Adamu worked against the emergence of President Bola Tinubu prior to the presidential primaries and even after he emerged as the candidate of the party.

Sani, in a post via his verified Twitter handle on Monday, following confirmation of Adamu’s resignation, taunted Buhari’s supporters in the APC.

He noted that Buhari’s supporters were now orphans who had become pariahs and are being thrown out of the party.

“The Buharists are now orphans; they are purged in their party,” he wrote.

Meanwhile, Sani has proffered a solution to the deepening security crisis in the south east which is engendered by the sit-at-home order enforcement.

On how to tackle the effects of the sit-at-home order on socio-economic activities, Sani asked the federal government and governors of Southeastern state to resort to financial inducement.

Senator Sani suggested that since the sit-at-home is usually observed on Mondays, the government should start sharing N50,000 palliatives to South-East residents in market places every Monday in order to make them come out.

Recall that the factional leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Simon Ekpa, has been declaring a series of sit-at-home in the South-East zone in protest of the continued incarceration of the leader of the proscribed group, Nnamdi Kanu.
