The former governor stressed that his cordial relationships with leaders from across party lines have continued despite any political rifts.
To illustrate his point, Tambuwal made a distinction between friendship and political collaboration. He stated that while he would personally give Wike his phone if asked, he would still choose Atiku when it comes to the nation’s leadership.
He also noted that his approach to politics has always been “altruistic and nothing personal,” and he believes that both Atiku and Wike understand this.
He concluded by reiterating his belief that Nigeria’s leadership choices should always be guided by vision and a clear sense of direction.
