According to media reports, the scandal is fueling grassroots movements within his constituency, who are now calling not only for accountability but also for a recall of the senator himself.
Abubakar Idris, a known terrorist figure arrested on August 17, 2024, reportedly implicated Buba, causing outrage in the senatorial district.
The backlash against Senator Buba has sparked the initiation of a formal recall process, with growing numbers of registered voters signing a petition to force the senator’s recall.
Meanwhile, Senator Buba’s predicament is further made worse by recent revelations questioning his true origin.
There are reports that the All Progressives Congress senator originally hails from Barkin Ladi Local Government Area in Plateau State.
“We thought he was one of us, but he’s not even a Bauchi indigene,” an anonymous community leader lamented in an interview with a journalist in the state.
