How can you have alleged alleged in almost all the paragraphs in his story, I believe professionally in the interest of justice where a reporter is not 100 percent sure of a story he should drop it.
"We don't know the motive behind writing a story based on false speculation and mischief, but to set the record straight, Shehu Buba visited Toro peacefully, he paid a condolence visit and donated N65,000,000,00 Sixty Five Million to his people in Toro."
"N50 million for Mosque building, N5 Million for the family of the deceased , N5 Million for elders and five million Naira for youths. He finish his visit peacefully, we don’t know anything booing during the visit, if anything happened after he left should not be link to him."
He said, "the central role of journalists in national development, is integrity, truth, and objectivity which every professional journalist follow up to guide their work, particularly at a time when the country grapples with security and socioeconomic challenges."
“We know journalist have a vital role to play, through responsible reporting and constructive storytelling, we can help shape public understanding, promote social cohesion, and contribute to the ongoing efforts to build a more secure and united nation,not through mischievous writeup."
"But it's unfortunate when People are just conjuring this story to give flavour to their malice and hate campaign.”

Senatorial district and the entire Bauchi State a good representation."
