Former Kaduna lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani has reacted to the ongoing military coup in Niger Republic, urging its citizen to resist military rule in the country.

On his Twitter handle, Shehu maintained that “military rule can not be the solution.”

Sani added that, “Military rule must be totally rejected and resisted in West Africa. Our democracy is not perfect and there is no perfect democracy anywhere. Military rule is not the solution.

“I’m surprised to read comments on social media, it appears that many young people are now in support of it. 

“I understand the disappointment and the frustration with the political class. It’s still better we continue to struggle to make our democracy better until we get it right.”
