Shehu Sani Reveals Jonathan introduced Electoral Reforms That Benefited Nigerians

The former Senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District in the 8th Assembly, Shehu Sani, has said that no politician has ever made electoral reforms that benefited Nigerians aside from former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Sani made this remark on Thursday while speaking at the first Roundtable of Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), with the theme, the Role of the Judiciary in Nigeria’s Democratic Sustainability.’

Speaking at the event, the former lawmaker and activist said there is no integrity among politicians.

According to him, “Well, I had the privilege of being in the civil society and I’ve been in politics. And if you mix these two experiences you’ll be able to know the two sides and also to be able to understand where the issues are.

“As activists, our thinking fundamentally differs from politicians. I’m still trying to find out if there’s any electoral reform Nigerian politicians cannot reconvene.

“We talk about the judiciary as the last hope of the common man, why are the political parties not the last hope of the common man, why is INEC not the last hope of the common man, why is the Presidency, the military, Senate and House of Reps not the last hope of the common man?

“We expert more from our judiciary. No president will make electoral reform that would lead to his downfall in office, only Jonathan.

“Only Jonathan appointed a Chairman of INEC he never knew and never met. Only Jonathan can introduce a data capturing machine and ended up being captured.”
