The lawmaker narrated how a principal in one of the small communities in Kaduna state was kidnapped alongside his pregnant wife.
Senator Sani revealed that the man was killed, leaving behind a pregnant wife, two others (wives) and 13 children.
"A principal in Koriga, Kaduna, was kidnapped, was killed, his wife was abducted (the pregnant wife) and also a small child.
"He left about three wives and about 13 children."
Shehu Sani blames Buhuari's administration for rising insecurity
The lawmaker further expressed his concern noting that this trend has now transcended from the north down to the southwest and the southeast.
The former legislator claimed that corruption and insecurity are still ongoing, attributing them to what he believes is the mishandling and embezzlement during Buhari's leadership.
He said:
"By the time Buhari left power, 113 million people lived below the poverty line. We had over 100,000 that were killed by terrorists and resurgents: Half of that number were kidnapped, and he left a debt of over N77 trillion.
"We had seen how the Central Bank of Nigeria was turned into a bazaar and a Father Christmas.
“It became like a central bank under Indi Amin where people can just go and know their chairman. This is what was inherited in 2023.
"About security, trillions of naira were spent under Buhari in the last eight years. Whereby even service chiefs go to Buhari with a note and collect money, directly approved by the president."
He encouraged President Tinubu to embrace comprehensive reform and demonstrate to Nigerians that he differs from his predecessor.
The former legislator emphasised the need for a deliberate strategy to address insecurity and prevent the country from enduring the consequences of the previous administration's actions.
