Just In: DSS Releases Ex-Zamfara Governor, Yari
A former Governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari has been released by the Department of State Services (DSS) after days of grilling.
A source close to the former Zamfara State Governor, who pleaded anonymity, disclosed this on Sunday morning.
“His Excellency has been released by DSS after about days of detention by the DSS,” the source said.
An online publication, had earlier reported that Yari was arrested by the secret police after receiving a call from the Director-General, Yusuf Bichi, to report at the DSS headquarters for an urgent discussion.
It would be recalled that Yari went against the All Progressives Congress (APC) zoning arrangement by contesting the Senate presidency with the party’s choice, Senator Godswill Akpabio, who eventually emerged victorious in the election for the president of the upper legislative chamber.
Yari has been having running battles with his party and others. His party lost his home state, Zamfara, in the March 18 governorship election.
