Following the death of former President Muhammadu Buhari in London, the former senator who represented Kaduna Central in the 8th Assembly, Shehu Sani, has cautioned Nigerians to refrain from speaking ill of the dead, reminding them of the shared human destiny of mortality and the uncertainty of life’s end.

Sani’s call for restraint came amid mixed reactions to Buhari’s demise. Some leaders paid tribute while others criticised his legacy.

In a solemn message posted on his verified social media account, the human rights activist and former lawmaker said, “Speak not ill of the dead. We are all mortals awaiting an uncertain fate at an uncertain time and in an uncertain place.”

Sani emphasised that those who are alive remain on trial, and therefore lack the moral ground to pass judgment on those who have passed away.

“A living man is still on trial and cannot judge the dead. Let the sleeping soul rest”.
