Shehu Sani, a former Senator from Kaduna State, has stated that when Buhari was president, he did not visit Southern Kaduna to offer condolences to victims who were attacked even though it would only take a short helicopter flight from Abuja.
In a report recently shared by The Sun, Sani said Southern Kaduna shares a border with Abuja. He said both the former governor, Nasir El Rufai, and Buhari did not show concern or take action to address the security challenges in southern Kaduna
In Sani's words: "Have you ever seen Buhari visiting Southern Kaduna to commiserate with the victims, even to fly by helicopter? How many minutes from Abuja to Southern Kaduna? Less than five minutes. Southern Kaduna shares the same border with Abuja for your information. But this person can fly to all parts of the world and if you ask him to fly out of Abuja, he has to fly through Southern Kaduna. So, he never cared and today, you have a governor who can reach out to the people in Southern Kaduna and he can talk to their leaders and console the victim"
