Senator Shehu Sani
A former lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani has rejected an international appointment where he was called to serve as judge in the forthcoming Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant.
The pageant is scheduled to hold at the Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos on April 4.
The event organiser, Senator Ben Bruce, who is Sani’s friend and former colleague in the 8th Senate on his official social media handle on Wednesday , announced Sani as one of the judges.
He stated: “Hearty congratulations to my good friend, Shehu Sani, on his appointment as a judge for the Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant, taking place on April 4, at the Federal Palace Hotel.
“Kindly ensure you arrive on time, 6:00 PM sharp and come dressed in your finest attire.’
However, Sani through his social media handle, X on Thursday, declined the invitation, thanked Bruce for the honour and gave reasons for rejecting the appointment. He also apologized for the inconvenience the rejection might have caused Bruce and other organisers.
He said, “My wives will not be happy if I serve as a Judge.
“I have not been able to pass judgment on the most beautiful between my wives let alone those I don’t know.
“I don’t have the knowledge or experience in such events.
“This is the Sallah period when we spend time with family members and friends. Thank you for the honour and wish them well.”
