Chairman of Nigerian Governors Forum and Governor of Zamafara State, Abdulazeez Yari, was said to be in a hot romance with Zahra, the beautiful daughter of President Muhammadu Buhari.
But the governor has reacted to the story. He denied reports that he is romantically involved with Zarah. He also faulted media reports that he gave the president’s daughter $200million as gift and that he divorced one of his wives, Hadiza Umaru Shinkafi, to accommodate Zarah.
The governor said the reports published in two weekly publications were false.
Yari’s position was contained in his letters to the publishers of the publications, accusing them of casting him in bad light and requesting them to retract the publications.
The letters, dated 18 and 19 January, were written for the governor by his lawyer, Mahmud Magaji (SAN), wherein Yari threatened to sue the publications for defamation, in which he would demand N100 billion (in the case of the first publication) and N10 billion (against the second publication) should they fail to retract the publication and tender apology within seven days.
Part of the letters read: “The above publication, no doubt, is false and defamatory, and it is intended to bring the reputation of our client to ridicule and cause odium or malignity to our client.
“Since the above publication, our client has received countless phone calls and text messages from family, friends, colleagues and associates, who incessantly call to enquire about the said publication.
“Consequent upon the above, it is our client’s instruction that we demand from you published retraction of the said defamatory piece in three national newspapers inclusive of your own.”
Well, I think President Buhari's daughter will want to be a first wife, even if her husband could marry other womens later as the Islamic religion permits, she will be the senior wife. Smile!
