‘Yari Never Said Tinubu Is Caged’ — Ally Sets Record Straight

Aminu Shehu, an associate of Senator Abdulaziz Yari, has refuted social media claims that President Bola Tinubu is “caged” inside the Presidential Villa, according to the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Water Resources.

In a statement released on Thursday, Shehu characterized the widely shared assertion as untrue and an intentional attempt to mislead the public and create needless political conflict.

Shehu reportedly stated that the comments attributed to the former governor of Zamfara State after the One Nigeria Project Conference in Abuja were made up.

“A widely circulated social media report on Wednesday falsely claimed that Senator Abdulaziz Yari, a former governor of Zamfara State, said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is ‘caged’ inside the Presidential Villa,” the statement stated.

The assertion, which surfaced during the One Nigeria Project Conference in Abuja, has been verified as false information. The publication was rejected by many close to the senator as an intentional attempt to mislead the public and create needless political strife.

In actuality, Senator Yari made statements endorsing President Tinubu and urging Nigerians to stand together. Yari emphasized the President’s commitment to bringing stability back and advancing national development.

He claimed that because President Tinubu is committed to advancing Nigeria, he has been working nonstop and receiving thorough briefs from all significant sectors of the country. Yari claims that the President is deeply involved in the problems facing the country and dedicated to coming up with solutions that would help every citizen. Yari continued by saying that a large number of Nigeria’s issues are self-inflicted and need for cooperation to solve.

He emphasized that national togetherness is the only way to achieve true growth, saying, “This is because so much havoc was initiated by us ourselves, but we need to come together.”

“I was with the President in the night, and I told him that I would be here, and if he has time, he should watch what we are doing,” he said, disclosing that he directly alerted President Tinubu about his attendance at the conference. And I believe that support should be given to this organization.

“Senator Yari also addressed the negative rhetoric that frequently targets the President, highlighting the fact that many of the criticisms originate from people who ought to know better. The elite are the issue. People are mistreating Tinubu. “You are mistreating him because you are more aware of the issue than the facts,” he stated, emphasizing the necessity for integrity, accountability, and patriotism to advance the nation.

“Yari came to the conclusion that a shared commitment to growth and development, collaboration, and unity of purpose are necessary to achieve “One Nigeria.” His claims contrast sharply with the fabrications that are making the rounds on the internet.
