The Arewa Youth Development Ambassadors (AYDA) has kicked against the cancellation of the appointment of Mr Yazid Danfulani as Executive Secretary, Solid Minerals Development Fund/Presidential Artisanal Gold Mining Initiative.
The AYDA led by Mr Abubakar Abubakar, made this known in a statement in Abuja on Saturday.
Grassroots Parrot reports that President Bola Tinubu cancelled Yazid Danfulani’s earlier appointment on Friday.
In a statement issued by the President’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga said the appointment had been cancelled because “there is no vacancy in the agency,” thereby returning Fatima Shinkafi as the Executive Secretary.

But Abubakar said that such amounted to sabotaging the effort of those who worked relentlessly for the election of President Bola Tinubu.
Abubakar described Danfulani, as a staunch supporter of Tinubu, adding that he was a great mobiliser who did quite a lot for the president’s campaign in the northwest and even beyond.
“Aside from using his influence to galvanise massive youth support, he ensured a total victory for the party’s presidential candidate.
“The group believes without an iota of a doubt that it is the best appointment that Mr president has made in recent times, especially as a reward for the youth of Northern Nigeria,” Abubakar said.
