Sani had earlier vowed not to pay delegates to vote for him during the primary.

In a Facebook post, Sani had written;

”We are going to the Governorship primaries today. My position is clear;I will NOT pay delegates to vote for me. I don’t believe this is the path our society should continue to thread.Our problems can never be solved by leaders who emerged through a market bidding system or auction.

Whether I record any vote or zero votes I’m ok.Our society criminalised ransom payment but embraces payment system for its leadership.

I welcome the Delegates to Kaduna.”
