Shehu Sani, the former senator representing Kaduna Central, has claimed that political manipulation is creating division between Muslims and Christians in the state.

He made this allegation in response to a viral video featuring former governor Nasir El-Rufai, where he reportedly admitted to deceiving Christians about the Muslim/Muslim ticket during election campaigns.

Sani also suggested that the victory of Bola Tinubu as President had silenced the Christian Association of Nigeria, and accused the Kaduna State government of promoting bigotry, using religious clerics to spread hate and divisiveness.

He further alleged that the government favored Muslims while subjecting them to suffering and hardship.

According to Sani, the government had marginalized and repressed the people of Southern Kaduna based on their faith and political choices.

He also noted that such videos were intentionally not conducted in English.
