Former Governor of Zamfara State, Senator Sani Yerima has
declared to run for the 2023 presidential election, under the platform of the
ruling All Progressives Congress.
The former Senator who represented Zamfara West, at the
National Assembly, was spotted at the Presidential Villa Abuja on Friday, where
he came to inform President Muhammadu Buhari about his intentions.
He said when elected President, he would focus on fighting
insecurity, poverty alleviation and ignorance of the mind which many Nigerians
are living with unknowingly.
The former governor, who is famous for introducing the
Sharia legal system in his state, debunked claims that he was a religious
extremist.
According to him, that perception people hold about him is
one of the reasons he would work on the ignorance of Nigerians and give every
citizen a sense of belonging.
While disclosing his plans to State House Correspondents, he
noted that he had secured the consent of the President to run for the exalted
office.
He is due to pick his expression of interest and nomination
forms today.
