In a statement he personally issued, titled, “My reaction to Emir of Daura’s coded campaign message for PDP”, Yakasai stated that it became inevitable to oppose what he called “the dangerous attempt to turn back history of the country whereby some traditional rulers will be used by some politicians as tools to promote negative trend in political campaigns”.
The elder statesman strongly advised the Emir not to allow himself to be used to destroy healthy political systems in Nigeria by reinventing tribal politics of old.
