YARI’S SUSPECTED AGENDA TO UNDERMINE APC SUCCESS IN ZAMFARA

Image
YARI’S SUSPECTED AGENDA TO UNDERMINE APC SUCCESS IN ZAMFARA The recent launch of the Atiku Abubakar political platform in Zamfara State by Senator Abdulaziz Yari is a brazen act of anti-party activity designed to sabotage the re-election bid of Governor Dauda Lawal and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. Credible reports confirm that Yari’s inner caucus and loyalists were fully kitted in Atiku-branded materials during the symbolic unveiling, leaving no doubt about his alignment with the opposition. This comes against a troubling backdrop: 1. *Financial Questions*: It is public knowledge that Senator Yari’s bank accounts were recently frozen by relevant authorities over unresolved financial issues.This raises serious questions he is yet to answer. 2. *Disregard for Party Unity*: Yari deliberately boycotted all stakeholders’ meetings of Zamfara political leaders before and after the APC primaries, showing contempt for collective decision-making. 3. *Rejection of State Leadersh...

Zamfara 2027: APC Must Remain Vigilant Against Internal Sabotage. A Political Commentary By Mustapha Mohammed Gusau.  As Nigeria gradually approaches the 2027 general elections, members and supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) must remain focused on anti- party activities by some aggrieved party members and loyalists.  President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration continues to implement policies aimed at economic reform, security enhancement, and national development. While opinions may differ on the pace and impact of these reforms, there is no doubt that the success of the APC in 2027 will depend largely on its ability to checkmate party leaders and loyalists who are planning to sabotage the success of the APC in both governorship and presidential elections.  Steps must be put in place to cross check and monitor such ambitions party leaders who are bent on ensuring that everything must be done in accordance to their interests because they have mo...

BETWEEN MONEY POLITICS AND GENUINE GRASSROOTS TRUST: YARI VS MATAWALLE IN NORTHERN NIGERIA

BETWEEN MONEY POLITICS AND GENUINE GRASSROOTS TRUST: YARI VS MATAWALLE IN NORTHERN NIGERIA An Analysis of Political Influence, Public Trust, and Grassroots Loyalty in Northern Nigeria Politics in Northern Nigeria has long been shaped by power, influence, financial strength, and the ability to command large political structures. For decades, many politicians believed that the quickest route to political relevance was through money, patronage, and the distribution of political favours. Yet, as the political climate continues to evolve, a new reality is gradually emerging, one where genuine grassroots connection, accessibility, and public trust are beginning to challenge the dominance of money politics. The growing political rivalry between Abdul’aziz Yari Abubakar and Minister Bello Mohammed Matawalle has increasingly become one of the clearest reflections of this changing political reality in Northern Nigeria. Though both men come from the same political environment and poss...

Zailani Suffering From Pains of Defeat, APC Women Group Alleges A political support group under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Igabi APC Women Grassroots Forum, has alleged that former Speaker of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Zailani, is still battling with the “pains of political defeat” following the outcome of the recent APC primaries. The group, in a statement signed by its coordinator, Hajiya Binta Ibrahim Mohammed, said the former Speaker lacked the political influence he often claims to possess, arguing that his inability to deliver electoral victories in his political stronghold exposed his declining relevance within the ruling party. According to the forum, Zailani failed to secure victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the APC in his ward, local government area, federal constituency, and the Kaduna Central Senatorial Zone during the 2023 general elections. The women group maintained that if the former lawmaker tr...

A Primary That Failed Arithmetic: How the PRP Presidential Nomination Was Compromised

A Primary That Failed Arithmetic: How the PRP Presidential Nomination Was Compromised The Ufere2027 Presidential Campaign is compelled to bring before the Nigerian public a set of facts that no amount of political spin can dissolve, because they rest not on opinion but on arithmetic. The People Redemption Party conducted its presidential primary under guidelines issued by its own leadership just one day before the 25 May election. Those guidelines were explicit: only members whose names appeared on the official membership register submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission as of 4 May 2026 were eligible to vote. That register was the governing document. It was the single source of truth agreed by all parties before a single ballot was cast. Measured against that register, the declared results collapse on contact. For example, in Gombe, a register of 348 members produced an astonishing 1,431 votes, a 311 percent inflation, with more than 1,000 phantom ballots...
