Sani warns Senate against approving Tinubu’s request for military intervention.

Former lawmaker and Kaduna-born politician Shehu Sani has appealed to the Senate not to approve President Bola Tinubu’s request for military action against the Republic of Niger.

Sani appealed to the upper chamber via his platform X social media account on Friday.

The Kaduna-born politician also appealed to President Tinubu not to allow himself to be misled by foreign powers.

Recall that the President sent a letter to the Senate seeking approval for military action and other sanctions against the military junta in Niger.

However, Sani believes that senators should weigh the implications and consequences of their decisions, especially those senators representing states with borders with Niger.

He wrote: “The Nigerian Senate should NOT approve any military action against the Niger Republic. This country should not be plunged into war and eventually stuck in the Sahel.

“President Tinubu shouldn’t allow himself to be misled by foreign powers. Saudi in Yemen, America in Afghanistan, and now Russia in Ukraine should teach us a lesson that war doesn’t end in days, weeks, or months.

“Senators should weigh the implications and consequences of their decisions, especially those senators representing states along the Niger border. Weaponising electricity supplies to Niger is also condemnable.

“President Tinubu should continue to explore diplomatic channels and save the lives of those who will be sacrificed. That’s my view.”
