A former senator from Kaduna Central, Shehu Sani, has advised Northern politicians vying for the presidency in 2027 to support President Bola Tinubu serving two consecutive terms for the sake of national peace and stability

“It is a tradition, a culture, a norm, or a ritual that each time you have a Sallah celebration, prominent people do visit the former President of this country, but I must clear the air by making a point.

“First of all, there is evidence of rallying of forces, regrouping of political forces from the North trying to use former President Buhari as a rally point in order to evict the government of Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu.”

“This desperation for power will not augur well with the region and for the unity and collective peace of our country as a nation.

“They should know that they had the opportunity to address all the problems of the bridging when they failed.

“North wasted eight years in power and did nothing for the region and did nothing for the people and left the region worse than it met it in 2015.

“This is not the time we should key into policies and programmes that will benefit our people,” he said.
