Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has reacted to a controversial claim by former Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung, that late President Muhammadu Buhari made a phone call from the grave endorsing former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Dalung, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), made the claim during an interview on Channels Television, where he spoke about the political developments surrounding Atiku’s presidential ambition.
The former minister alleged that former First Lady, Aisha Buhari, visited Atiku and informed him that her late husband’s 12 million votes had been transferred to him.
Dalung further claimed that a phone call from Buhari’s grave had urged Nigerians to vote for the former vice president.
Reacting to the remarks, Sani took to his X handle to mock the claim, questioning the circumstances surrounding the alleged communication from the late president.
“When a full grown man says he received phone call from the grave, you can only but pray for him for deliverance,” the former senator wrote.
Dalung’s comments have drawn attention to the political discussions surrounding Atiku’s possible presidential bid and the influence of Buhari’s political legacy.
