Former House of Representatives aspirant for Sabon Gari Local Government Area, Muhammad Sadisu Buba, has dismissed criticisms surrounding his age, height and educational qualification, insisting that leadership should be judged by service and vision rather than physical appearance.
Buba made the remarks during an interview on S24 Television while reacting to comments from critics who questioned his suitability for public office because of his stature and perceived limitations.
