Senator Shehu Sani has asked President Buhari to visit the people of Zamfara state and condole with them before starting any presidential campaign.
Sani also hoped that the President will touch down in Zamfara, saying: “The President should visit Zamfara to commiserate and condole, before Akwa Ibom to rally; and I believe he will, hopefully.”
The President had earlier blasted the murder of innocent Nigerians in several communities in Zamfara state.
Buhari, who described the act as appalling, added that an assessment team led by the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshall Abubakar Sadiq will visit the state.
He also said that a joint security task force may be deployed to restore peace to the affected areas.
According to reports, youths in Zamfara state hijacked a peaceful protest by Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) on Monday.
The report says the youths sealed the highway and prevented travelers coming from different parts of the country.
