Saraki, Dangote, others are parasites over sale of assets – Sen Shehu Sani

Shehu Sani, senator representing Kaduna central senatorial district in the National Assembly has described those calling for the sale of nation's assets as economic predators and parasites.


Recall that Business magnate, Aliko Danote, Senate Bukola Saraki had at different fora advised President Muhammadu Buhari to sell off nation's asset to revive the ailing economy.

Also, the Nigerian governors during the National Economic Council meeting on Thursday approved a federal government plan to sell some national assets and inject the proceeds into the economy.

This drastic step is aimed at tackling the current economic recession, a statement from the office of the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, said yesterday.

There have been calls on the federal government to sell its assets as part of measures to take the economy out of recession.

But Mr. Sani said the call for the sale of our National assets and investment is condemnable.

“The proponents are economic predators and parasites who wants to profit from the recession”, Shehu Sani said in post on his social media account.

The Kaduna senator, therefore, advised Nigerians to resist and rise up against this heists and roguery.
