Senator Shehu Sani, former federal lawmaker, has kicked against the suspension of the Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF, National Chairman, Mr. Mamman Mike Osuman over his recent remarks on the 2027 presidential election.
Newspot recalls that Osuman had in a statement he issued in Kaduna State, said that the North would back a northern candidate for the presidency in 2027.
However, the forum swiftly suspended him, claiming that the statement was issued without consultation or discussion with other leaders and members of the ACF.
Reacting to the suspension, Shehu Sani in a post on his official X handle on Friday, said the ACF chairman should not have been suspended for airing his opinion.
The former lawmaker wrote, “The ACF Chairman should not have been suspended for airing his opinion. The content of his speech is not completely out of order.
“The only problem may be that his opinion can be interpreted as that of the organization he leads”.
