Governor
Abdul’aziz Yari of Zamfara on Thursday said he has no presidential ambition and
dismissed as fake, trending online media campaign for him to run in
2019.
The governor
said in a statement issued on Thursday in Gusau by his media aide, Ibrahim
Dosara, that his main preoccupation now was to deliver on the mandate given to
him by the people of the state.
It described
the online accounts as fake and urged Nigerians to ignore them.
“I hereby
inform the general public that the creators and managers of such fraudulent
twitter and indeed all other related online platforms accounts are doing such campaigns
on their own,” the statement added.
It stressed
that the governor has not indicated interest to contest for any political
position in the country or asked anybody to campaign for him.
“The
attention of the general public is therefore drawn to such campaigners of
calumny who are bent on tarnishing his image.
“The general
public is also advised to ignore any information from such fake online
platforms accounts and campaigners, as all are fake and baseless,” the
statement said.
It said that
the governor has congratulated Nigerians for the return of President Muhammadu
Buhari from medical trip in London.
