Former Governor Ahmed Yerima of Zamfara State, Senator Sani Yerima, visited President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday at the State House, Abuja, perhaps, to seek clearance, and thereafter, declared for the 2023 presidential race on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Yerima, after the meeting with President Buhari on Friday, joined other aspirants jostling for the APC presidential ticket.
