Barely three days after quitting the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Shehu Sani on Tuesday joined the People’s Redemption Party (PRP).

According to a statement issued in Abuja through his Special Adviser, Political and Ideology, Senator Sani said it had become impossible for him to continue to co-habit with persons he described as reactionaries and their inimical style of politics.

“Sen. Sani maintains the highest respect and honour for President Muhammadu Buhari. However, we prefer to live in a Cottage of Honour than a mansion of shame. Sen. Shehu Sani has returned to the PRP. PRP represents our socialist revolutionary ideology.

“Sen. Sani is now free from the toxicity and infamy APC existentially represents. We left the APC for the emperors and their lackeys,” the statement read in part.

Confirming the development to newsmen, the Kaduna State Chairman of PRP, Dr. Tom Maiyashi, said the lawmaker who has been at loggerheads with the state governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai was now a duly registered member of the party.

Senator Sani dumped the APC after his name was substituted as the party’s candidate for the Kaduna Central Senatorial District despite being issued an automatic ticket by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.

Sani’s name was substituted with Mr. Uba Sani, Governor El-Rufai’s Special Adviser on Political Matters.
