Nigeria Election Has Reached A Point Where You Will Contest & Just Invite Your Friend To Declare You Winner – Shehu Sani 

Right activist and former Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani has reacted to the current controversy surrounding that Adamawa Governorship re-run election.

Since last Sunday, the state has been in the news for negative reason. This is coming on the heels of illegal declaration of the candidate of the All Progressive Congress, Senator Aisha Binani as winner of the election by the state Resident Electoral Commission while the collation of results was still ongoing.

Binani has challenged the sitting governor, Ahmed Fintiri in the March 18 governorship polls but the election was declared inconclusive due to recorded violence in one of the local governments.

On Saturday April 15, a rerun election was conducted but before the collation of results was completed, the REC unexpectedly declared APC candidate winner of the elect.

The move sparked a serious outrage across the country which consequently led to the suspension of the state Resident Electoral Commission by the Independent National Electoral Commission on Monday.

Reacting to the development, the senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District at the 8th Assembly said: “Nigeria Election has reached a point where you will just contest and  invite your friend to declare you winner.”

Shehu Sani made this known on his verified twitter handle on Tuesday.

He wrote: “Nigerian election has reached a point where you will just contest then invite your friend to declare you winner, make an acceptance speech and quickly rush to the court to get a judicial backing. I hope Nollywood Directors are taking notes for their next movies.”
