Yari: God Chose Me to Lead Tinubu’s 2027 Campaign

The Director-General of President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 campaign council, Senator Abdul’aziz Yari Abubakar, has said he believes God chose him for the position.

Yari spoke on Friday in Gusau during a meeting with APC leaders and stakeholders as part of efforts to mobilise support for Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.

He said he would travel across the country to present Tinubu’s achievements and explain why Nigerians should support his bid for a second term.

According to Yari, however, success in Zamfara would depend on the support of party leaders and members across the state.

He predicted massive support for Tinubu from Zamfara and said the campaign would be driven by the administration’s record rather than attacks on opposition figures.

Yari admitted that some of Tinubu’s economic policies had brought hardship but maintained that certain reforms were necessary to strengthen the economy.

He also defended the government’s tax reforms, saying they were designed to ensure that people contribute based on their income without placing an unfair burden on the masses.

On security, Yari said the government was committing significant resources to fighting terrorism and banditry. He argued that although the spending could have been used for development, tackling insecurity was necessary to create room for economic growth.

Yari said the campaign would focus on the country’s challenges and the government’s plans for the future.

“Nigeria is before us as Nigerians” he said.
