Former Governor of Zamfara State, Senator Ahmad Sani Yarima has promised to tackle the problems of insecurity, poverty, and ignorance, saying he would work with religious leaders to tackle wild ignorance.
Speaking Friday in Abuja during his presidential declaration, Yarima explained that he would create a Ministry for Religious Affairs with two ministers for the two major religions.
“We will create a Ministry for Religious Affairs and you will have a Minister of Muslim Affairs and a Minister for Christian Affairs”, he stated.
The former governor said he would uphold the constitutional guarantee of all Nigerians to follow any religion.
On the state of the nation, Yarima said a lot of people have forgotten where Nigeria was before President Muhammadu Buhari took over power in 2015.
He rolled out a three-point agenda that he said would see him fighting insecurity, poverty, and ignorance.
