Former First Lady of Kaduna State, Hadiza El-Rufai, has openly corrected a former Senator and human rights activist, Shehu Sani, over his recent statement.

Sani, who represented Kaduna Central in the 8th Assembly, had written in an X post about President Bola Tinubu travelling out of the country and the connection to the hike in prices of commodities.

In the post, he argued that the President’s foreign trip affects taxes and commodities prices.

“New law of economics; When the President travels out, taxes and prices goes up,” he wrote.

Reacting to the post, Mrs El-Rufai, who is known for correcting bad English on X, spotted the post and corrected the former lawmaker.

She said Sani’s post should have read ‘’go up” and not ‘’goes up.”

While in office, Governor Nasir El-Rufai and Sani were involved in a political battle.

There are reports that the rift cost the former lawmaker his seat in the Senate in 2019.

Sani left the All Progressives Congress at the height of their rift.

He sought to be reelected into the Senate but lost to Uba Sani, incumbent governor of Kaduna and former ally of El-Rufai.

  1. First of all I want to say superb blog! I
    had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.
    I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing.
    I have had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas
    out. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted simply just
    trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
    Thanks!
