  • Post category:Politics

The former governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari, has been released from detention by the Department of State Services (DSS). Yari was detained for allegedly receiving N45 billion from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to fund President Muhammadu Buhari’s reelection campaign in 2019.

Yari was also implicated by the suspended CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, who alleged that the former governor received the money from the CBN through a company owned by Yari’s son.

Yari was released on Saturday night after the DSS concluded its investigation into the allegations against him.

The former governor has denied any wrongdoing and has said that he is ready to cooperate with the authorities if they need his help.

Yari’s release comes at a time when there is growing public anger over the alleged misuse of public funds by government officials.

The DSS has been under pressure to release Yari and other high-profile figures who have been detained in recent months.

The release of Yari is likely to be seen as a victory for those who have been calling for the DSS to be more transparent in its operations.
