Senator representing Kaduna Central senatorial district in the National Assembly, Shehu Sani.

The constituency office which is located at stadium roundabout by constitution road, Kaduna was attacked when Sani social media staffs were holding a meeting.

A spokesperson for the Kaduna Police, ASP Aliyu Usman, who confirmed the attack, said the police is doing everything possible to prevent any breakdown of law and order.

He said the police was not inform of any meeting, calling on all and sundry to always notify them of any meeting for necessary security measures.

Sani had, in his facebook page ,confirmed the attack and called on his supporters to remain calm and not to contemplate any form of retaliation.

“Some few minutes ago I received a report that some heavily armed thugs raided and attacked my constituency office located at Stadium Roundabout by constitution Road Kaduna. They unleashed terror on my Social media team whom where meeting in the office. They vandalized the office in their violent act.”

“We have the lead and the information that thugs were fully recruited and paid by political appointees of Governor Nasiru Elrufai. We have the names of the political appointees and we have the names of those they are funding. Right now their details are given to the DSS and the police for investigation,” Sani said.

He added: “Two days ago, attempt to burn down my Family house in Alkalawa Road, Tudun Wada Kaduna, by sponsored thugs was thwarted by vigilant residents and neighbours, which led to the brief deployment of policemen in the area.”

“I wish to state it categorically clear that I hold Governor Nasiru El-rufai personally responsible for whatever happens to me or any of my family members or supporters. After the use of financial inducement on APC Excos in the state to silence Shehu Sani in the name of suspension, which never worked, they have now taken the road of violence,” the Senator added.

“The Governor of the state or his desperate political appointees should know that we can never ever be silenced, cowed or intimidated .I call on my supporters never to take the road of violence or retaliation. We are men of ideas, of ideals and of peace. Those who take to the road of violence have no place in a democratic society,” Sani wrote on his facebook page.
