Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani has criticised previous governors of Kano state for not funding the state’s educational system.
Sani, in a post shared on his X page on Friday, June 14, expressed disappointment over the decline in the quality of education in the state.
PM News reported that Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf revealed on Saturday, June 8, that his administration met 4.7 million pupils sitting on bare floors in primary schools across the state upon his assumption of office on May 29, 2023.
Reacting to the development, Sani described the revelation as sad and unfortunate considering the state that boasts of over “a thousand wealthy people”.
The chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) tweeted:
TimesNow.com.ng reported that the current chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Abdullahi Umar Ganduje is the immediate past governor of the state and political rival of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) chieftains, Rabiu Kwankwaso and Governor Yusuf.
In another development, TimesNow.com.ng reported that Shehu Sani waded into Kano Emirate tussle. He said that it is not proper for Kano state to have a federal and state emir.
Sani was reacting to the recent drama in the ancient city in recent days following the return of Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano four years after his dethronement.
Reacting, the human rights activist and chieftain of the PDP wrote on X: “Please and please Itâs not good to have a Federal Emir and a State Emir.”
