On the eve of the trip to flag-off the cleanup of Ogoni, which had been neglected after decades of oil exploration, a militant asked Buhari to “sign his death warrant” before his visit.
The cancellation of the visit sparked outrage, with Ayo Fayose, Ekiti state governor and fierce critic of Buhari saying it was shameful for the president to have “run away from militants”.
Reacting in a Facebook post, Sani said: “Threats of assassination by deranged Avengers couldn’t have been the reason for PMB’s cancelled visit. When he cancelled the trip to Lagos there was no threats and no such mischievous conjectures.
“I’m not disputing that every human being has fears, but not for a man who risked his life and fought a civil war to unite his country and made a carrier in the defence of his nation. For a Man who has experienced darkness, have no fear of a shadow.”
Earlier on Thursday Sani wrote: “Whether it’s PMB or Vice-President that travelled to Rivers, the most important thing is that the FG has taken a bold and unprecedented step in cleaning up Ogoni land and the Niger Delta in line with #UNEP report and recommendations. An initiative hitherto disregarded by past administrations. By his action, PMB is present. Action is the soul and testimony of physical presence.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
