Senator representing Bauchi South Senatorial District, Shehu Buba
The senator representing Bauchi South Senatorial District, Shehu Buba, has vowed not to be intimidated, harassed or silenced by what he described as ongoing media attacks and a politically motivated trial against him.
Buba, who is the 2027 governorship candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party in Bauchi State, made the declaration in Abuja on Monday while receiving aides, coordinators, party leaders, political associates and religious leaders from Muslim and Christian denominations who gathered to express solidarity with him.
The former chairman of the Senate Committee on National Security and Intelligence has faced allegations since 2024 of having links with suspected bandits, claims he has repeatedly denied.
The latest controversy followed the circulation of videos by a content creator known as ‘D English Alhaji’, who alleged that suspected bandit kingpins had visited the senator’s residence.
