Still Living In A Rented Apartment In Abuja, With High Hopes To Build Mine - Shekarau

Senator Ibrahim Shekarau of Kano Central has stated that he still stays in a rented property in Abuja.

The two-term governor and incumbent senator made the remarks in response to a rumor that he was paid $1 million to abandon the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, NNPP Presidential Candidate, had raised some allegations against Shekarau.

But while engaging his followers, the Shura Council and committees on the situation of things in the NNPP, the senator said he would never betray his.

“Till date, I am not saying this for someone to hear, I still live in a rented house in Abuja. I pray God brings the money that I will build mine.”

“In my 42 years of being a leader, I was a principal of GSS Hadejia with 500 students and 64 teachers. This hand have signed and approved whatever amount of money one can think of. My Commissioners are all alive, I have never dictated in a council meeting who should be given contract.

“We have handled countless contracts with both international and domestic contractors; I dare any contractor to come out and say there was a time when we negotiated on a specific contract.” Every political appointee or contractor who brought me one Naira is challenged. If anything occurs and he or she remains silent, I will not forgive him.”

He added that while a plot of land is unarguably precious in Kano, he did not allocate one feet of land to himself in his eight years as governor.

“It is not that we don’t like the money, but our dignity is more important than wealth. Whoever knows any house outside the one built for me based on pension agreement, I have given it to him.”

Shekarau, further pointed that he still maintain good relationship with high profile politicians within and outside the party and associating or visiting each other shouldn’t be an issue.
