Yari Lauded for Civil APC Campaign Approach and Engagements

The New Nigeria Initiative (NNI) has praised Senator Abdul’aziz Yari, the former governor of Zamfara State and current Director-General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, for his commitment to issue-based political campaigns. In a statement from Chris Oke, the Director of Public Affairs for NNI, the group noted Yari's approach as a significant shift from traditional campaign tactics that often involve personal attacks and inflammatory rhetoric.

Yari's campaigns have focused on civility and issues rather than insults. Additionally, the NNI commended Yari for his consultations with traditional rulers across Nigeria, which are aimed at fostering peaceful elections and enhancing stakeholder understanding.

These engagements are ongoing and are seen as vital for nation-building, reflecting Yari's awareness of the complexities of the country's challenges. The group encouraged other political campaigners to adopt Yari's focus on issues.
