Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani has applauded President Muhammadu Buhari for saving the country from total collapse by introducing several government policies stressing that the only politician that Nigerians have confidence in today was the President.
Senator Sani who made the statement on Friday in Zaria, Kaduna State at the 10th National Conference of School of General Education, Federal College of Education assured that the All Progressives Congress (APC) was also working assiduously to restore the country on the path of growth and development.
He listed some of the areas that have witnessed significant improvement under the Buhari administration to include security, fight against corruption and restoration of the image and honour of the country in the international community.
According to him, “Nigerians are suffering, they are in poverty and there is no confidence between the masses and those in position of authority except Buhari. The masses in Nigeria have confidence only in President Buhari but no any other politician.”
He added that if the Change Mantra professed by the APC fails, the teeming youths might be forced to take their destiny in their hands. “If the progressive political class do not perform better from the conservative political class, then the next thing is revolution; that is what is going to happen.”
The Senator also berated the Central Bank of Nigeria for doing little to protect the the Naira alleging that it was only in Nigeria that school fees are paid in foreign currencies, especially the United States Dollars.
“It is unfortunate that there are some schools in Nigeria that don’t receive school fees in Naira but in U.S. Dollar, British Pounds and Euros. These schools don’t operate with our local education curriculum, they use Oxford, Cambridge or Boston curriculum. This is serious and highly unacceptable, we must urgently do something about it,” he said.
Senator Sani further called on the Government to pay serious attention to the plight of teachers since they remain the bedrock of the growth and development of the country. He said “...without teachers, there could have been nobody in position of authority today”.
