BREAKING: Politicians Who Say Courts Should Not Intrude in Political Parties End Up in Court to Interfere – Sani
Former Kaduna Central senator, Shehu Sani, has taken a swipe at political actors over what he described as hypocrisy in handling internal party disputes, amid ongoing tensions involving party leadership and electoral recognition.
In a post shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle on Sunday, April 12, 2026, Sani criticised politicians who publicly oppose judicial intervention in party affairs but later seek redress in court when conflicts arise within their own ranks.
His remarks come against the backdrop of recent intra-party crises across Nigeria’s political landscape, with disputes over leadership, congresses, and recognition prompting legal battles and interventions by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Sani’s comment underscores a recurring pattern in Nigerian politics, where party stakeholders often insist that internal mechanisms should resolve disputes, yet turn to the judiciary when disagreements escalate or outcomes are contested.
The former lawmaker’s observation highlights broader concerns about consistency in political positions and the increasing role of the courts in determining party leadership and legitimacy.
As internal wrangling continues within several parties, INEC’s stance on recognition and compliance with legal rulings remains a critical factor shaping the trajectory of these disputes, further drawing judicial institutions into the heart of Nigeria’s political process.
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
