Kaduna guber: Students massively reject Uba Sani over promise to ‘sustain El-Rufai’s policies’

Kaduna State University Students have massively rejected the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Uba Sani for promising to sustain governor Nasir El-Rufai’s legacies if elected governor come March 18, 2023.

The students under the leadership of Abubakar Abdullahi, made their position known on Wednesday in a declaration note titled: “Kaduna State University (KASU) Students Described Uba Sani And APC As Students’ Enemies.”

In a statement issued by the students which was obtained by CAPITAL POST Kaduna on Thursday, students described Uba Sani of the All Progressives Congress as a
“lifetime nemesis”, hence, he should be rejected at the poll.

The statement signed by Abubakar Abdullahi, President Kadssu KASU, accused the APC and Sani of causing too much harm than good to students and Kaduna State as a whole, adding that they would not forget in haste the increased tuition fee by the Nasir El-Rufai’s administration that led to the drop out of over 2,000 students who could not afford to pay for the new school fees.

The students said they listened to Uba Sani during a public debate for governorship candidates on BBC Hausa which took place at the University that he would sustain El-Rufai’s policies, a development they said they would not vote him and mobilise Kaduna people to reject him.

The statement reads, “History will never be kind to us as students’ leadership, who were duly elected by the majority number of students in the university if we failed to tell them the truth at this trying time.

“It has come to our notice that some chicken change and corrupt individuals parading themselves as Kadssu KASU Students’ leaders have liaised with Uba Sani to illegally pay the sum of N50,000 as stipend for the hiked tuition fees to some selected persons.

“I therefore on behalf of my executive members and all Kaduna State University Students make it clear to the public that we have no hand in whatsoever agreement they made regarding the kangaroo arrangement for payment as it’s nemesis will never set us free.

“We don’t want Uba Sani to pay any stipend. If he truly loves Kaduna State Students, then he should advise El-Rufai to reverse or reduce the hiked tuition fees as a sitting Senator and El-Rufai’s close ally.”

“I, therefore, call on all well-meaning Kaduna State University Students not to be distracted by the failed government as we will continue agitating for reversal or decrease of our tuition fees to enable every student complete his/her course of study,” it adds.
