Senator
Shehu Sani, has rubbished a report of a Committee constituted by his party, the
ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, to look into the issue of restructuring.
Shehu Sani revealed that there
will be no restructuring in the country, before or after the 2019 general
elections.
Post-Nigeria recalls that the
Governor Nasir El Rufai-led Committee had on Thursday, last week, submitted its
report on restructuring to the National Working Committee, NWC, of the APC, on
Thursday.
While speaking, Sani described
the report as a ‘political gimmick’ by the El-Rufai-led Committee.
“El-Rufai’s APC Restructuring
Committee is a self-serving political gimmick, aimed at diverting attention
away from Obasanjo’s letter. It is also a campaign document for 2019. It is not
a report worthy of the paper it was written”, Sani said.
Sani maintained that the country
will have no restructuring, before or after the 2019 general elections.
He said Mr. El-Rufai is
“anti-restructuring”.
“El-Rufai
is anti-restructuring. There will be no restructuring, before and after 2019.
The President had repeatedly made it clear that the problem is a process, so
what are we talking about.
“El-Rufai simply wants to eat his
cake and have it; orally calling supporters of restructuring as opportunists, and
on the other hand submitting a report in support of it”, he said.
He noted that the document will
not be considered by the Senate.
“When eventually the El-Rufai
Restructuring Committee reaches the Senate, it will be photocopied to 109
pieces and shared to the Senators to use as toilet paper. If there are extra
copies, it will be shared to Suya and Akara hawkers outside the National
Assembly, to use it to wrap their products.
“El-Rufai’s restructuring report
will be shredded and modified to serve as a good toilet paper for Senators. If
there is seriousness in restructuring, it could have started in 2015.”
