Legit.ng recalls that just days ago Yari claimed that the ongoing outbreak of Type C Cerebrospinal meningitis in Nigeria has the handwork of God in it.

He said that God is using it to vent his anger on Nigerians who are terrible sinners.

The governor told journalists at the presidential villa Abuja shortly after meeting with President Muhammdu Buhari that Nigerians have turning their backs on God and hence, reason for the outbreak.

But Yari has denied it in a statement through his special adviser on media and public enlightenment Ibrahim Magaji Dosara.

He said all he asked Nigerians to do was to move closer to God and plead for his mercy to avert further infectious diseases and other health crises in the state and Nigeria since God has answers to all challenges.
