Sani warns, Buhari setting trap with media optics
By Jeph Ajobaju, Chief Copy Editor
Former Senator Shehu Sani has alleged President Muhammadu Buhari’s last-minute engagements are a trap for Bola Tinubu who is expected to take over from him on May 29.
Buhari on Tuesday inaugurated seven legacy projects, including three bridges, three federal secretariats, and a road.
But Sani insisted these optics by Buhari are only a trap for Tinubu.
“President Muhammadu Buhari’s last-minute ‘engagement’ is a trap for the Bola Tinubu administration,” Sani said on Arise TV.
“The award of contracts, sourcing of loans and mass employment at the twilight of his administration cannot be said to be done with good intentions.”
Sani also called out Buhari on Twitter over uncompleted projects.
“Let it be on record that the Abuja to Kaduna and Kano roads are uncompleted,” he tweeted, per The Guardian.
“If the President is commissioning it, he is commissioning an uncompleted project.
“I can recall that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GEJ) was denied the Railways glory because he couldn’t complete it.”
And Sani put in perspective the United States President Joe Biden’s decision to send a delegation to the swearing in of Tinubu.
“The US has diplomatic and business relations with Nigeria. The US sending a delegation for the swearing in of Asiwaju is in the spirit of that.
“Their message is that the contention about our election is more of our problem and not their problem.”

Buhari’s tenure escalated killings, kidnappings, and poverty, Sani tells him in farewell
Your tenure as President is the worst in Nigeria’s history as it escalated killings, kidnappings, and poverty across the land, Sani had said in farewell message to Buhari three weeks ago.
He noted Buhari also leaves behind N77 trillion national debt, 133 million Nigerians in multi-dimensional poverty, mass killings amid the President’s lie of having delivered on his promise of change.
Buhari insisted at the inauguration of a housing estate in Zuba, Abuja on May 2 that his administration delivered “change” to Nigerians.
He said the delivery is in affordable housing and the new housing estate also addresses multi-dimensional poverty among the populace.
Sani reacted in a tweet that “the President is living behind 77 trillion naira debt, 133 million poverty-stricken people, 25m people at the risk of hunger according to Unicef, 10m out of school children, mass killings and kidnappings on a daily basis; yet he said he has delivered on the change he promised.”
