[SIYASA] Gov. Yari speaks on APC’s loss of Zamfara

The Zamfara state governor, Abdulaziz Yari, has said his All Progressives Congress (APC) lost the battle for the state because that was what God willed.
In a statement by the governor’s media adviser, Ibrahim Dosara, Mr Yari said he and the party had accepted the verdict of the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court on Friday ruled that APC lacked candidates for all elections in the state, as there were no proper primary elections.
The apex court directed the electoral commission, INEC, to issue certificates of return to candidates who came second in the polls.
Candidates of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) benefited from the ruling.
On Saturday, INEC confirmed PDP’s Bello Matawalle as the state’s governor-elect.
The Zamfara government statement quoted Mr Yari as saying the party and its supporters in the state “have done everything possible to ensure APC did not lose Zamfara state but as Allah wanted, the party lost the state.”
