Nigeria elections: How Gov. Yari ’caused’ postponement of presidential polls – Mar

The Senator representing Zamfara Central, Kabir Marafa has accused the Zamfara State governor, Abdul-aziz Yari Abubakar of sabotaging the now postponed presidential and National Assembly elections in the country.

In a statement issued on Sunday, Marafa alleged that Governor Yari should be held responsible for the sabotage that led to the postponement of the nation’s presidential and federal legislative elections.

The senator, while describing the postponement as unfortunate, said Yari should be held responsible for it “having boasted that if his candidates are not included in the ballot paper, there won’t be elections in the country”.

According to the senator, “during the grand finale of his illegal campaign rallies in his hometown, Talata Mafara, Zamfara on Friday, February 8, he rained abuses and said unprintable things on the person of INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood, and swore that unless his candidates were enlisted to contest, there won’t be elections in Zamfara State and the entire country. Now it has come to pass; what next?

“I’m calling on the authorities to hold Yari and his accomplices responsible for this treasonable sabotage against the country, Nigerians and humanity in general.

“Just search on the internet, including YouTube, you will see the stories and videos of where Yari stated emphatically that unless his candidates were accepted, elections won’t hold in zamfara State and Nigeria.”
