2027: SHEHU SANI ANNOUNCES BID FOR KADUNA CENTRAL SENATORIAL SEAT
Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, declared his plan to seek re-election in the 2027 general elections.
He made the announcement on Sunday while delivering his Eid-el-Fitr message at his home in Kaduna.
“Any politician contesting an election depends on the political equation that determines the position to vie for. If the conditions are right and the equations are favorable, I will offer myself to contest specifically for the Kaduna Central senatorial district,” he stated.
He further emphasised that his ambition remains secondary to ensuring the re-election of Governor Uba Sani for a second term.
“For now, our priority is to see that the incumbent governor, Uba Sani, is re-elected. We will work with all our might and strength to achieve this. We know there will be challenges and opposition, but we are well prepared for all forces,” he added.
Sani also used the occasion to urge Muslims to pray for Nigeria’s peace and unity during the Eid-el-Fitr celebrations. Additionally, he condemned the recent killing of hunters in Edo State, calling on security agencies to apprehend the perpetrators.
“If citizens cannot move freely across the country, then we are not truly a nation. If individuals take the law into their hands for any reason, it means there is no government or authority,” he lamented.
He urged all Nigerians seeking a better nation to promote peace and unity to safeguard democracy, despite current challenges.
Sani also called on the government to protect fundamental human rights, especially the right to life, as a key measure for national stability and progress.
