The chairman, Zamfara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Jibo Magayaki Jamilu has tackled Senator Abdulaziz Yari for exonerating Minister of State, Defence, Bello Matawalle, from allegations of sponsoring banditry.
In a statement he personally issued to newsmen in Gusau, the PDP chairman said, 'Instead of deflecting responsibility, Yari should advocate for an investigation into any potential complicity regarding the security issues in Zamfara State. 'Governor Dauda Lawal is not engaging in a blame game, rather, he is striving to set the records straight for the sake of posterity, accountability and transparency.
' According to him, 'Governor Lawal's approach stands in contrast to previous governors, showcasing a dedicated effort to confront the state’s challenges head-on. 'Senator Yari should redirect his caution and advice toward Matawalle, as it is essential for all leaders to be held accountable for their actions.
