Shehu Sani Shehu Sani

Former federal lawmaker, Shehu Sani has opined that the February 25 Presidential and National Assembly Elections has humbled politicians in the north.

According to him, the outcome of the polls has taught a crucial lesson to the political class in the region.

Nigerians trooped out en-masse to decide their next leader during the presidential election and even though there are reports of massive rigging and electoral fraud across the country, the turnout showed that the people, especially the youth, are now prepared to make decisions about who leads them.

Sani, who is a former representative of Kaduna Central Senatorial District in the Bukola Saraki-led 8th Assembly said politicians are now humble.

“Politicians are now being nice and humble,” he tweeted.

“They are reaching out to the displaced and traumatised victims of terrorism, sharing foodstuffs and promising them heaven.

“The same widows and orphans they never visited for years. The voters are the kingmakers, if only they know.”
