The Zamfara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress APC has congratulated the former governor of the state, Distinguished Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, the senator representing Zamfara West in the National Assembly over the conferment of the traditional title of Marafan Sokoto on him by His Eminence, the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III.
This was contained in a statement by the State Publicity Secretary APC party Alhaji Yusuf Idris and made available to newsmen.
On behalf of the Zamfara State All Progressives Congress Working Committee, Executives, Party leaders, Elders, members and the entire party supporters in the state, the State APC Chairman, Hon. Tukur Umar Danfulani congratulates one of our leaders, His Excellency, Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar over the conferment of one of the exalted traditional titles in the Sokoto caliphate, the Marafa of Sokoto.
“This is an honour done to all party members and the entire people of Zamfara for finding our own worthy of the title of Marafan Sokoto which we believe, he has all the qualities to earn such a title as required by the seat of the caliphate.
Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar who is the son in-law to the late Marafan Sokoto of blessed memory will no doubt emulate the good virtues of his late father in-law, Alhaji Umaru Aliyu Shinkafi considering his patience, tolerance, hardwork, dedication, justice and philanthropic activities.
His simplicity and obedience to Allah’s commandments are unique, and we hold the belief of utility by the Sultanate Council
Similarly, Danfulani expressed gratitude to Allah for making the Sokoto Sultanate Council and its people identify with the Distinguished Senator, commend the Sultanate for finding Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar worthy of the title of Marafan Sokoto.
The party also prays Allah to continue to guide and protect the senator in all that he’s doing to humanity, especially in the state.
