The Senator, representing Kaduna Central, Uba Sani, has described media report on purported sponsorship of bill to rename Kaduna State to Zazzau State as a lie from the pit of hell.
Sani made the refutal in a statement issued to newsmen in Abuja on Monday.
‘The senator expressed dismay at what he described as a concocted, subversive, malicious and false information circulating in the social media claiming that President Muhammadu Buhari had signed a bill for the creation of Zazzau State, allegedly co-sponsored by him in the Senate with Senator Sulaiman Abdu Kwari.
Sani who is the APC governorship candidate for 2023 election in Kaduna said the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria was on break, adding that no such bill was before the Senate.
He said requests for creation of states are normally tabled before the Committee for Constitutional Review.
According to him, the story is therefore the handwork of agents of destabilisation and must be investigated by security agencies.
He said those behind this subversive act must be brought to book to serve as a deterrent to others.
He said he was fully focused on putting finishing touches to fashioning effective strategies to ensure their success in the 2023 governorship elections.
