Bauchi State Governor Bala Muhammed of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has paid President Bola Ahmed Tinubu compliment with regard his approach to opposition.
Speaking against the backdrop of the feud between Bayelsa governor, Similanayi Fubara, and Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, Bala, who is Chairman, PDP Governors’ Forum, said Tinubu could have been running roughshod over opposition parties but chooses to be magnanimous in his political dealings.
The governor asserted this on Tuesday while confirming that the President resolved the differences between Fubara and Wike.
His word, “The President is on a call; He is speaking to both parties to douse the tension.
“We had a closed session where very serious national issues that have security implications were discussed. That is the problem emerging in Rivers.
“The President, in his usual leadership position, intervened, and then it will appear there will be peace in that respect. He has shown that he’s a President for everybody. A President of the PDP and a president of the APC by intervening today and bringing succour and solace to the people of Rivers and Nigeria.
“He is making sure he did not use his big hammer and biro to emasculate us as the opposition. We found this to be very good. And going forward, we pledge that we are going to work with him to bring good governance to the people of Nigeria.”
