As the Ondo State governorship election draws closer, many politicians on both sides of the two most prominent parties – the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Congress (APC), have been arriving in Ondo State to help solidify their parties chances in the forthcoming Saturday election.
However, we hear that prominent Arewa youths have alerted Ondo people on the antics of some of these politicians.
One of the prominent members of Arewa Group, Comrade Bello M. Magaji has cautioned Ondo people to be wary of former Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara State, who he said from precedents could breach the peace in the state through incitements of the people to violence.
He recalled that it was Yari who during similar campaigns in time past, held a press conference precisely in year 2019 in Gusau the capital of Zamfara State, where he tried to incite the youths by using all sorts of provocative and abusive language on the former APC National Chairman, Adam Oshiomole, saying; “If Adam’s father and mother born him well, he should dare to visit Zamafara State for any reason!”
Magaji said; “We know the Yoruba people are not prone to violence, they are a people of honour and very straightforward. And as such we are calling on them in Ondo state, ahead of Saturday’s election, to beware of such provocative inciting words from ex Gov Abdul Aziz yari, he is already known for his fast flaring temper and he has a short fuse, which could lead to bloodletting!”
