Popular politician, Senator Shehu Sani from Kaduna State has lambasted those criticizing President Muhammadu Buhari’s Eid-el-Firt message relayed in Hausa language to Nigerians.

The lawmaker in a Facebook post on Monday evening said: “There is nothing wrong with the president sending Sallah message in Hausa language. Buhari can speak Hausa, Osinbajo bound to use English”

“Buhari is on medical vacation; he has transferred power to the acting President. It is the acting president that is bound to act ‘officially’ on state matters, including speaking in our official language. Understandably, we live in times when everything is sensitive and subject to interrogation and interpretation; this is avoidable.”

“Lets pray for our president and our country and work hard to surmount our challenges rather than harp on the superficial and the mundane. The presidency should also periodically update the nation on the progress of Mr. President’s health so as to neutralise the conjectures, speculations and ripples of rumour”
