Former federal lawmaker Shehu Sani, who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District, has pledged to confront Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, over recent remarks made by Wike at a public event.

In an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Sani reacted to Wike’s challenge, where Wike reportedly questioned Sani’s contributions to democracy during his Senate tenure. Sani expressed his frustration, accusing Wike of strategically positioning himself to avoid rebuttals at events.

“Wike is my friend, and I would have preferred to respond to him in person rather than on TV. I’ve been at events where he speaks last, closing discussion without allowing responses. But next time, I will engage him directly,” Sani asserted.

He emphasized the significant role he and others played in ending military dictatorship in Nigeria, suggesting that figures like Wike owe their political careers to the efforts of activists like himself. Sani highlighted his time as a political prisoner, contrasting it with Wike’s activities during that period.

While acknowledging that Wike’s comments were directed more broadly at the Senate’s overall contributions to democracy, Sani underscored that he would not let such remarks go unchallenged in the future.

The exchange underscores a clash of perspectives on political history and personal contributions, reflecting deeper currents within Nigeria’s political landscape.
