Killings: Visit Zamfara before Akwa Ibom rally, Shehu Sani tells Buhari

Senator Shehu Sani has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to visit Zamfara, following the recent attacks in the state.

Sani urged the President to make the visit before proceeding on his campaign rally scheduled for Friday, December 28 in Akwa Ibom.

President Buhari is billed to flag off his campaign for second term bid in Uyo, capital of Akwa Ibom on Friday.

Ahead of the rally, Sani, the lawmaker representing Kaduna Central has advised President Buhari to embark on a condolence visit to Zamfara where suspected armed bandits on Wednesday, December 19, stormed three communities in Birnin Magaji local government area, killing many residents.

Daily Trust had earlier reported that the State Police Command confirmed the attack and the figure in a statement on Sunday by its spokesperson, Mohammed Shehu.

President Buhari had in a statement by his senior special assistant on media and publicity, Garba Shehu, ordered that security operatives calm the tension stirred by the attack and bring the perpetrators to massacre to justice.

Senator Shehu Sani however, believes the President should pay the state a condolence visit himself.

Sani in a tweet pleaded that President Buhari visits Zamfara before his trip to Akwa Ibom state to flag off his presidential campaign.
