A civil society organisation, Transparency Watch, has called on privileged Nigerians, particularly politicians, to emulate the philanthropic and people-centred leadership style of Senator Abdul’aziz Abubakar Yari, who represents Zamfara West Senatorial District in the National Assembly.
The group said Yari has continued to use his position and personal resources to improve the lives of vulnerable Nigerians, particularly in Zamfara State, describing his intervention programmes as examples worthy of emulation.
In a statement signed by its Director of Public Affairs, Cliff Richards, Transparency Watch said the senator’s humanitarian activities and development initiatives have positively impacted many lives and distinguished him among public office holders.
According to the group, Yari has consistently prioritised the welfare of the people, both during his tenure as governor of Zamfara State and now as a senator.
It noted that the lawmaker has supported farmers through the distribution of subsidised fertiliser and provided food items, including rice, millet, sugar, beans, semovita, sorghum, maize and wheat, to constituents during festive periods, irrespective of political or religious affiliation.
