Buhari Should Free Himself From Cabals - Senator Shehu Sani

The Senator representing Kaduna Central in the National Assembly, Senator Shehu Sani, has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to free himself from cabals in the current administration,channelstv.com reports. 

Mr Sani said this during an interview on Channels Television’s programme, Roadmap 2019 on Monday. “President Buhari needs to free himself from the cabals around him – the hyenas, the jackals and other predatory animals that are with him,” he said.

According to the Senator, the President has possessed all the requisite qualities needed to steer the affairs of Nigeria for another four years.

Shehu also revealed that he had known Buhari in Kaduna years before becoming the nation’s President and could vouch for his integrity and competence.

Despite the sterling qualities the President possessed, Senator Shehu explained that the nation’s leader should be a team player by carrying everyone along. This is even as he criticised the Federal Government for failing to address the constant killings in some northern parts of the country.

He believes that the bloodshed in some regions of the country coupled with ethnic rivalry, if not addressed, could dent the reputation of the current government.

“There exists also an apparent failure as Nigerians have never been more divided than they are now. People no longer see themselves as Nigerians. They see themselves as northerners, southerners, Muslims, and Christians.

“And the killings going on in North Central and the North Western part of Nigeria, is a serious dent on the reputation, integrity, and competence of Buhari,” Shehu added.

The Senator praised the Federal Government for improving the nation’s economy and the security challenges with respect to Boko Haram attacks in the northeast.

On the non-confirmation of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s boss, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, the senator absolved the National Assembly for the action.

He said the lawmakers acted on a security reporting from the Department of State Services (DSS) that indicted Magu. With Channels TV
