Senator representing Kaduna central in the National Assembly and 2023 governorship candidate of the Al Congress (APC) Uba Sani, has said that Governor Nasir el-Rufai will leave Kaduna poorer than he came because he is not a corrupt politician.
This is even as he said he will continue from where governor el-Rufai stops in administering Kaduna State if elected governor.
Senator Sani said there was no shying away from the fact that el-Rufai made some mistakes while governing the affairs of the state because he is human.
The governorship hopeful stated this yesterday while interacting with journalists during media parley at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Kaduna State council.

He said el-Rufai will leave the government seat poorer as a person than when he came in as governor.
He said as a lawmaker, he had sponsored several bills, some of which he said had been assented to by President Muhammadu Buhari.
On insecurity, Uba Sani called for creation of state police and licensing of vigilantes to carry arms to complement efforts of conventional security agencies.
He charged journalists to always endure to interrogate those running for the 2023 political positions, saying most of them are out to enrich themselves rather than working for the larger society.
“Government alone cannot create jobs for the people. We need the private sector to complement government efforts. We will continue from where our governor stopped. The government of Kaduna State has done a lot. When the governor came in 2015, we rehabilitated all dilapidated primary and secondary schools. He abolished school fees which increased pupil’s enrollment.
“Kaduna State government has employed more teachers in primary and secondary schools than the ones sacked. We looked at the quality of teachers now, and we say prosperity will reward el-rufai for doing what he did. Only teachers that were not qualified to teach that were sacked.
“The critics take their children to school abroad. But here in Nigeria governor Nasir el-Rufai is the first governor to take his children to public primary schools.
“We will continue with open door policy so that every segment of the society that is key to participating in our government will be engaged. We will even appoint some of them to work with us and move the State forward.”
