The Chairman, Publicity Committee of the former Governor Abdul’aziz Yari’s faction of the All Progressive Congress in Zamfara State, Alhaji Ibrahim Birnin-Magaji, has said linking Yari to Shi’ite or its leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky was politically motivated aimed at denting his political image.
In a statement, Birnin-Magaji said those associating Yari with the Shi’ite group want to spoil his political future. He said, “The attention of the APC under Former Zamfara State Governor, Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar has been drawn to a recent photoshop publication currently trending in the Social Media depicting the pictures of Shi’ite Leader in Nigeria, Malam Ibrahim El’zakzaky and Hon. Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar in an attempt to paint him as Shi’a Sect adherent.
“The move initiated by Former Governor Abdulaziz Yari’s adversaries was aimed at marring his bright political future especially at this point in time when he is seen as the ‘only alternative’ for the position of National Chairman in the build-up to APC National Convention.”
