Shehu Sani
Former Kaduna lawmaker, Shehu Sani has reacted to a viral video of the President of South Sudan, Salva Kiir Mayardit urinating on himself while opening a road project on Tuesday.
The 71-year-old Mayardit peed himself during the recitation of the national anthem and the event was broadcast live on television, meaning that nothing could be done to rectify the embarrassing situation.
He is said to be suffering from a urinary tract infection, which is common in older men.
The viral video elicited mixed reactions from the international community and Sani said the President may have been extremely patriotic.
“I have seen a viral video of the President of South Sudan wetting himself in public.
“This may be a urinary sickness or an extreme act of patriotism; refusal to excuse himself while the national anthem was being played.”
