Sani, who represented Kaduna Central in the upper chamber of the National Assembly from 2015 to 2019 under the APC defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and contested for the party’s gubernatorial ticket in the 2023 general elections.

A source confirmed that Senator Sani will also be defecting to the APC in the coming days all things being equal.

However, Sani’s supporters, who came from across the 23 local government areas of Kaduna State, stormed the 2023 APC Campaign Office at NEPA Roundabout in Kaduna, carrying posters welcoming him back to the APC.

The supporters said they have persuaded their leader, Sani, to return to APC and they are convinced that he will officially decamp to the APC in the coming week.

A decampee and former campaign director of Sani, Mr. Monday Jaji, said he has been struggling to ensure Sani defects from PDP for over two years because of his track record of achievements while he served as senator of Kaduna Central on the platform of APC.

According to him, “When he was a senator, Comrade Shehu Sani built seven hospitals across his constituency. He distributed over 200 transformers to communities, assisted the poor masses, and even bought a house for destitutes in Kano road.

“Shehu Sani built a hospital in Chikun and built 3 in Igabi Local Government, Rigachikun, and Giwa Local Government,” he said.

Receiving the decampees, Kaduna State chairman of the APC, Air Commodore Emmanuel Jekada Rtd, expressed happiness about the defectors’ return to the APC, saying that it will propel the party and Kaduna State to greater heights.

It was gathered that former lawmakers, who lost their return tickets to the National Assembly during the last elections, are set to leave the party.
