“I have been in election tribunals down to the Supreme Court and can attest to the level of distraction a Governor and his administration face on account of some needless litigations. But a calm disposition, open-mindedness and inclusiveness towards everybody; including those who instituted litigations against you, is what defines a true leader”, Bello said.
He urged Governor Oyetola to build on the policies that have defined him as a good ambassador of the All Progressives Congress, APC while sustaining the programmes and developmental agenda of his state in line with the party’s manifesto.
