Former Senator representing Kaduna State, Shehu Sani, has urged the former governor of the state to address the allegations against him and clear his name, rather than diverting attention with what he described as “phantom claims” against the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.

In a post shared on his X page, Sani questioned the timing of the claims, asking why such sensitive information was not disclosed earlier and only surfaced after the former governor was invited by authorities.

“The ex-Governor of Kaduna State should focus on the allegations before him and clear his name instead of diverting attention with his purported and phantom claims against NSA Ribadu.

“Why the delay in disclosing such sensitive information to the public until he was invited? His antics and deceptions should be ignored.”

He added that some individuals and families who were allegedly victimised during the former governor’s tenure have chosen forgiveness despite their experiences.

“For those of us whom he once traumatised, our families framed and dragged to the police and the courts in Kaduna, we forgive him, but urge him to learn to handle his karma with maturity, decorum, and faith.

“If our society continues to pamper and protect past leaders who should be held accountable for their actions while in power, it sends a clear and unconditional message to those in power today that they will also be protected after leaving office.”

Sani stressed that public officials must be held responsible for their actions while in office, warning that shielding former leaders from accountability could send a dangerous message to those currently in power.
