Shehu Sani on Thursday via his Twitter handle gave the advice as the race for the most exalted office of the land intensifies.
He twitted saying, “In view of the fragile and inflammable state of this country, candidates and their supporters should conduct their campaigns with decency, maturity, and a sense of responsibility.
“Whipping up ethnic, sectional & religious sentiments will only burn down the country they want to lead”.
Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP); Bola Ahmed Tinubu of All Progressives Congress (APC); Peter Obi of Labour Party (LP); Prince Adewale Adebayo of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), among others are some of the strong presidential candidates jostling to occupy the nation’s number one seat in 2023.
Senator Shehu Sani, has also coerced the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to join his party.
He said the ruling party is “unfair and unjust” to Tinubu.
Sani said this in a post on his verified Facebook page.
According to him, God made Buhari President but Asiwaju played a pivotal role.
He explained that he witnessed several meetings when Asiwaju frequented Kaduna to meet with Buhari.
The post reads: “The APC is unfair and unjust to Asiwaju. Allah made Buhari president but Asiwaju played a pivotal role. I have been in some meetings when Asiwaju frequented Kaduna.
“Unfortunately, people like us have left the party, we could have lent him our unwavering support. I would never have sat on the fence or kept quiet. But the truth is evident; they don’t like Asiwaju. Let him join the Atiku train,” he said.
It could be recalled that Senator Sani left the ruling party before the 2019 general election due to a rift between him and Governor Nasir El-Rifai.
