Atiku’s visit to Buhari in Daura, a ‘trekking in Sahara’ – Shehu Sani

Former Senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial Disctrict, Shehu Sani has reacted to the former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar’s visit to the immediate past President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, saying Atiku was “trekking in the Sahara”.

Atiku, who was the presidential candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Saturday, June 22 visited Buhari at his residence in Daura, Katsina State.

The former Vice President was accompanied by the immediate past Governor of Sokoto State, Senator Aminu Tambuwal, alongside other PDP stakeholders.

Reacting to the visit in a post shared on his verified X page, Sani said Atiku visiting Daura, Katsina State, was okay if it was for Sallah’s homage.

He, however, said it’s like trekking in the Sahara, if it was a political mission.

Sani wrote: “If the Daura visit is a sallah homage, that’s okay. If it’s a political mission, it’s like trekking in the Sahara.”
