My Son Is Not Interested In Politics – Saraki

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has ruled out the possibility of his son participating in any political activity in Kwara his state of origin.

He said at the News Agency of Nigeria Forum in Abuja that it was untrue that his son was being groomed as the next governor of the state.

According to Mr. Saraki, the boy is not interested in politics.

“That is not in the offing at all; I am sure he doesn’t even want to hear politics at all.

“You know it is not easy for children who are born to politicians, especially in this time, to embrace politics.

“When I was much younger, we were insulated from some of the political issues, and because we didn’t read the newspapers, we didn’t know what was happening.

“I reluctantly went into politics, you can go and check. Once or twice, I was given the form to run for House of Representatives, and I remember I just travelled and disappeared for months.

“After seeing what my father had been through I thought to myself that this is not for me” he said.
