Shehu Sanni in a statement posted on his Facebook account is advocating for Nigerians to be lenient with President Buhari whom he said has given the better part of his life to the unity of Nigeria.
“Those protesting for the President to resume or resign have the constitutional and fundamental rights to do so. But the President had properly handed over power to the Acting President before he travelled on medical vacation.
“I fully respect the rights of protesters to object but I appeal to them to step down their placard and pick up a prayer book for our president. He has given so much and sacrificed so much for our country, and this is the time to stand by him when it’s telling on his health.
“For a man who has given the better part of his life for our unity and for our progress, it’s not much if we show him love, care and understanding in his trying moments,” he posted.‘Those calling for Buhari to #ResumeOrResign have overstepped their bounds’ -Presidency
