Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, Director-General of Media and Publicity to the Kano State Governor, has hinted at plans to retire from active politics, citing a desire for a quieter and more private life.
The Independent Mirror reports that Bature disclosed this in a reflective post shared on his verified Facebook page on Saturday.
“I look forward to a life behind the camera, behind politics, and behind the fight,” he wrote, adding that his future plans are focused on peace, freedom, and service to humanity away from the public spotlight.
“Just a cool life, a free life, and a private life with family and friends, devoted to religion and the welfare of those around me,” he added.
The media strategist also revealed his intention to retire by the age of 50, describing it as a personal spiritual goal. “#Retire@50by50%, In sha Allah. May Allah guide us on the right path, amin,” he wrote.
Bature is a well-known public affairs commentator and currently serves as Director-General of Media and Publicity to Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.
It will be recalled that ahead of the 2023 general elections, he initially indicated interest in contesting for a seat in the House of Representatives under the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), but later stepped down following the defection of Engr. Tijjani Jobe from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the NNPP.
His post has since generated reactions on social media, with many interpreting it as a possible signal that he may soon exit active public and political life.
