Former Senator Shehu Sani has officially announced his bid to return to the Senate in the upcoming 2027 elections, aiming specifically for the Kaduna Central senatorial district.
This declaration was made during his Eid-el-Fitr address at his Kaduna residence on Sunday.
Sani, who previously served in the Senate from 2015 to 2019, outlined his political aspirations amidst a backdrop of strategic considerations.
“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 favourable, I will offer myself to contest specifically for the Kaduna Central senatorial district,” he affirmed.
Highlighting his commitment to Governor Uba Sani’s re-election bid, Sani emphasized, “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.”
During his address, Sani urged fellow Muslims to use the Eid-el-Fitr period to pray for national harmony and stability.
He condemned the recent killing of hunters in Edo State, urging security forces to swiftly apprehend and prosecute 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 asserted.
Furthermore, Sani called upon all Nigerians dedicated to national progress to unite and work towards peace, stressing the importance of upholding fundamental human rights, particularly the right to life, as crucial for national stability and advancement.
