Senator Sani took to his Twitter page to add his voice to the raging issue.
Joining the fray, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, advised the APC to stop blaming the PDP for its shortcomings.
Some Nigerians are of the opinion that the current government has failed and just hanging on to excuses.
Others are of the opinion that our problem is too many arm chair critics, blaming every other person but themselves.
Meanwhile, the immediate past governor of Jigawa state, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of shielding members of the APC mentioned in corruption cases.
In an interview with a national newspaper, the former governor accused the APC of campaigning on pure lies in order to win votes from the people.
His words: “If there’s anybody who reaped most from PDP’s evil, it is the APC and they know what they campaigned on were pure lies. They know it.
“Their government is a creation of evil and shame, because it was fertilized by the PDP. The APC government is our daughter because the PDP made them. Minus the PDP, there would be no APC.”
“If you are with the APC, Buhari will clean you and that’s why all people from the PDP who went to the APC are very clean now.
“When they say we’re thieves, it is the smaller thieves that remained in the PDP, the bigger thieves are in the APC.”
