FG covering up corrupt practices of ex-governor Abdul'aziz Yari of Zamfara - Fani-Kayode

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, FFK, has accused the Federal Government of covering up the corrupt practices of the former governor of Zamfara state, Abdul'aziz Yari.

In a series of tweets, Fani-Kayode stated that Yari awarded a contracted and made full payment in the tune of N60 billion to the Chinese for a job he says was never done.

According to Fani-Kayode, Yari would have been prosecuted by the FG had it been he was a member of the opposition, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

"Abdul'aziz Yari, the fmr. Gov. of Zamfara, is the most filthy, despicable, corrupt & greedy politician in Nig. Whilst his people were being slaughtered he stole billions", he tweeted.

"He awarded a contract of 60 billion to the Chinese, paid all the money upfront & in the end NO work was done!

"Sadly the whole thing is being covered up by the FG. If this had been a PDP Governor he would have been prosecuted & sent to jail long ago.

"Thankfully Zamfara has a Governor who knows what he is doing now and who has shown that exemplary leadership can bring positive change", he added.
