The Kaduna State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is considering expelling Senator Shehu Sani, for supporting the ongoing strike by the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC against the recent fuel price hike.
The APC’s Publicity Secretary, Salisu Wusono, made this known in Kaduna on Thursday, saying the party was disappointed by the conduct of the senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District.
He described Senator Sani’s as “irresponsible” saying it was condemnable for the senator to support the call by labour for its members to lay down tools.
He said:
“Given his disregard for the party, the APC in Kaduna State has no option but to take further disciplinary measures that may lead to his expulsion.
“Supporting the NLC against the president and government on subsidy removal was only an affirmation that Mr. Sani is a PDP man masquerading as an APC senator.
“The Kaduna State APC is dismayed and disappointed by the continued irresponsible conduct of Shehu Sani.
“In speech and conduct, he has shown himself incapable of loyalty to our party, the APC and our great leader, President Muhammadu Buhari.
