Times reports that Senator Sani and Governor El-Rufai have been loggerhead for
undisclosed political reasons, leading to Sani’s suspension by the state branch
of the party. Sani accused El-Rufai of ruling like “an emperor,” promising to
“give him war or peace,” whichever he chooses. In the same vein, former
military governor of Kaduna state, Dangiwa Umar, a retired colonel, gave his
first major interview in 23 years in which he laid in on Governor Adams
Oshiomohle; and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftains, Edwin Clark and Tony
Anenih, calling them “traitors.” Responding to a question on the fortunes of
former President Goodluck Jonathan after he was defeated in March, Mr. Umar
said, “I compare them (Oshiomhole and co) to insects that cling to flowers.
They are attracted by the nectar rather than by the beauty of the flower.
“Governor Adams Oshiomhole, who generously praised Jonathan as a true democrat,
suddenly turned into his most virulent critic.” Mr Umar revealed that during
Jonathan’s testy days as acting President, he advised him to sack his service
chiefs, but that the former president was too confused and agitated to act. “He
complained,” Umar said, adding that “the NSA had informed him that the service
chiefs were disgruntled with the way the sick and bedridden Umaru Yar’Adua was
being treated and that he, the acting president, was most disloyal.” Senator
Sani recently came under severe criticism by governors under the auspice of
Northern State Governors Forum (NSGF). The governors said that Senator Sani
erred over his comment on their trip to Saudi Arabia to obtain loans from the
Islamic Development Bank (IDB), saying that lawmaker displayed ignorance on how
government works.
