Inside Zamfara APC Primaries: Yari’s Picks Rejected

Senator Abdul’aziz Yari’s candidates lost the APC senatorial primaries in Zamfara State. Ikira Aliyu Bilbis won the Central ticket, while Sahabi Yau Kaura secured the North slot. A source alleged that Yari offered inducements to party officials. Members resisted, insisting their votes were not for sale. One insider said the era of patronage in Zamfara is over. A “concluded list” naming Yari’s preferred contenders circulated online. The APC’s National Working Committee labelled it fake and urged the public to ignore unverified information. Attempts to contact Senator Yari for comment went unanswered.
