Senator Marafa says Governor Yari frustrated the APC primary election in Zamafara state.
Senator Kabiru Marafa, has accused Governor Abdulaziz Yari of “frustrating� the conduct of the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election in Zamfara state.
Addressing journalists in Gusau, Governor Yari urged all APC members in Zamfara state to conduct the primaries individually to beat the 12 midnight deadline by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
But, in a statement, Marafa described the governorâ€
s directive as an invitation to anarchy.
"It is unfortunate that the Governor after deliberately frustrating the conduct of the exercise will now be asking the people to conduct the exercise themselves,� Marafa who chairs the Senate Committee on Petroleum (Downstream), said.
“This is an invitation to anarchy and we will never be part of any illegality, aimed at pushing the state into anarchy.
“Governor Yari threatened that there would be bloodbath in Zamfara, five innocent persons were killed and many more wounded by Yaris boys, and the culprits are still working freely,� he added.
