Shehu Sani: “I Almost Faced Six-Month Suspension for Revealing Senators’ Allowances in 2018”

Senator Shehu Sani revealed that he was nearly suspended for six months from the upper chamber in 2018 for disclosing the remuneration of federal lawmakers.

In a post shared on his X handle on Thursday, March 6, Sani stated that he would have been suspended if not for “Divine intervention” by the then Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu.

The former senator from Kaduna noted that any senator who “blows the whistle too loudly” will face the consequences of their actions alone, without support from fellow members.

“When I publicly disclosed the salaries and allowances of the Senators,it nearly earned me a SIX months suspension if not for Divine Intervention,Saraki and Ekwerenmadu’s immediate rescue.Just know that if you are there and you blow whistle too loudly,you will be “On your Own”,no senator go bring him head or neck to support you.”
