SHEHU SANI IS REGARDED as a fiery, fearless politician and activist in the Northern Nigeria. Former Kaduna State lawmaker is sounding the alarm of a conspiracy by some centrifugal, powerful political forces in the North, in an on-going plots, clandestine moves being made to topple the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He called out those seeking to overthrow the incumbent as agents of destabilization in the country.
Sani, has cautioned northern leaders against attempting to unseat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential elections, warning that such actions could jeopardize the nation’s unity.
Sani conveyed this message during an interview with Arise Television.
He advised northern leaders to focus on leveraging the policies and programs of the Tinubu administration that benefit the northern region, rather than seeking additional political power.
Sani said: “There is evidence of rallying of forces. Regrouping of forces-political forces from the North-trying to use former President Buhari as a rallying point to evict the government of Ashiwaju Ahmed Tinubu.
“And they hope to resurrect his political chance in the house of the masses and portray the government as one that has been undermining the North and one that has not been living up to its campaign promises to the region being that it has its highest votes from there.
“And I must warn that attempts to do that can create a serious problem for our country. Buhari was in power for eight years and there has never been any serious southerner that challenged his own government in terms of trying to remove him from office.
“And secondly, we should know that before you think of power, we should think of the whole country. We should be thinking of a united country, a peaceful country. Nigeria is still a fragile nation.
“What will happen if southern politicians decide to also form the idea of uniting themselves and making a position that this is their stand? There will be no Nigeria.
“So, they should, in the interest of the unity of the country and the future of the country, sacrifice their personal ambition at least for 2027.
“And the North will have the moral right to ask for power after the second term of this administration. This desperation for power will not go well for the region”.
