$350m Loan: Group Accuses Senator Shehu Sani of Frustrating Efforts
……Gives lawmaker 2-week ultimatum
A group, the Kaduna Patriotic Front (KPF) has accused Senator Shehu Sani, representing Kaduna Central, for “sabotaging the $350 million foreign Loan meant to further support masses-oriented projects by the Elrufai administration”.
A statement signed by its Chairman of the group, Abubakar Ibrahim and made available to newsmen, accused Senator Shehu Sani of collaborating with “vicious enemies of Kaduna State to sabotage all efforts towards development projects”.
“It would be recalled that the Kaduna State has satisfied all requirements for securing the loan based on available facts about it’s ongoing efficient debt servicing strategy, robust revenue base and clearly-defined projects to be executed with the loan.” Ibrahim added.
The group condemned what it described as “backstabbing the masses who voted Senator Shehu Sani into office, by deliberately sabotaging the final endorsement of loan process”.
The group said it was regrettable that “a Senator who claims to represent us would prefer endorsing the same request for loan in favor of other States of the federation and abandon his own State, what an insult on the entire people of Kaduna State”.
The group also gave Senator shehu Sani “two weeks ultimatum to do the needful, by ensuring that the loan process is concluded for the benefit of the people of our state”. It then warned that “failure on the part of Senator Sani to act accordingly, would leave us with no option than to mobilize 1 million Kaduna people for protest at the premises of the National Assembly, until our demand is met”.
