Shehu Sani: Muslims and Christians are not free from terrorist attacks

The same terrorists that are killing Muslims in Katsina, Borno, and Niger State, according to Shehu Sani, a former senator from Kaduna Central, are not sparing Christians in Southern Kaduna, Benue, and Plateau States.

Sani stated that terrorism has no religion while adding that it aims to take innocent lives.

The former senator was reacting to the terrorist attacks that led to the killings of residents of some communities in three local government areas in Plateau State on Christmas eve.

No fewer than 150 people were killed, and hundreds of houses were razed.

The attacks also displaced more than 10,000 persons. Until now, many of the victims are still taking refuge in churches, mosques, schools, and private residences.

Posting on X, the politician turned socio-political activist wrote: “The terrorists killing Muslims in Katsina, Zamfara, Borno, Yobe, and Niger are the same terrorists killing Christians in Southern Kaduna, Benue, and Plateau States; terrorism has no religious preferences.

“They don’t even spare their members who ‘derail.’ It’s either you are with them or you are a target.”
