Senator representing kaduna central district, Sani Shehu has replied the All progressive Congress’s allegation against PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, over the crowd at his rally in Sokoto yesterday, December 4. Shehu advised APC to rent their own crowd from Sudan, since Atiku was said to have rented his from Niger. Shehu who said this today, December 5, via his twitter account reacted to Kaduna state’s Governor, Nasir El-Rufai’s allegation that the crowd at Atiku’s North East presidential rally in Sokoto yesterday, was rented from Niger republic.
On his verified Twitter handle, Shehu tweeted that: “They rent theirs from Niger because of proximity; You can rent yours from Sudan because of affinity.” Recall that we earlier reported that El-Rufai had at the inauguration of 69-member Kaduna APC Campaign Council said that: “Thieves have ganged-up against President Muhammadu Buhari. Yesterday, they were in Sokoto and they rented a crowd from Niger Republic just to show people that they have supporters because Sokoto people refused to come out. So, when it is time to launch President Muhammadu Buhari’s campaign in Kaduna, people should come for the whole world to see that it is not Niger Republic people that are disguising as Nigerians.”
