“He has to take consideration of the fact that he met people that were impoverished, that were muscled, harassed and demoralized by the government of the PDP. So, first of all, they don’t need harsh policies that will further impoverish and alienate them. We need to carry them along, taking cognisance of the situation which we find them in.

The Senator said Mr. El-Rufai is ignorant of the needs of Kaduna residents and is in the process of plunging the state into ruins.
“Kaduna is a place I have I lived all my life and since I came out of prison in 1998, I have never been out of Kaduna for more than two weeks and I’ve never been appointed to any public office which I will live in Abuja and not know what is happening in Kaduna. So, I can tell you that within Kaduna North, Kaduna South and metropolis of Kaduna, there is hardly any street that I don’t know anybody.

“He is a governor, I’m also a Senator. He is not bigger than me, neither am I bigger than him.

Mr. Sani objected to the recent ban of street begging announced by Mr. El-Rufai in July.
