Governor Yari
Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara state has tagged Saturday’s governorship primary election in the state as “no nonsense” saying it would be “fire for fire”.
Speaking during a grand rally organized in support of his governorship candidate Alhaji Mukhtar Shehu Idris. Governor Yari said those who want peace shall see peace and those who do not want peace shall see otherwise.
He then took a swipe at the other aspirants on the APC’s platform known as “Group 8” saying they are envious and weak minded adding that they would be defeated in the forthcoming primary elections.
He described the G8 as selfish politicians who have no interest in the development of Zamfara state.
“We are set for the primaries, this primary is “no non sense” everybody should be be ready to face the G8 and defeat them squarely”, he added.
