Niger Delta ex-militant leader, High Chief Government Ekpemupolo has urged the Northerners to let President Bola Tinubu complete eight years in office just like his predicessor, Muhammadu Buhari, who cames from the North.
Tompolo, who spoke on Arise Television amid Atiku Abubakar’s campaign for coalition against Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election, said he doesn't want anybody from the North to cause problem.
The Niger Delta leader also promised to travel to all states in the North to appeal to the people of the region to support Tinubu’s reelection in 2027.
Tompolo said, “We will do our part, even go out of our boundary to the northern part of Nigeria to talk to our brothers so that he will get his second tenure.
“Tinubu is a good person; he has the experience to bring this country to a higher level.
“I am travelling across all the northern states to appeal to them. Buhari spent eight years now. So, we don’t want anybody to cause any problem.
“Let Tinubu have his eight years too and go then we will look for another person. There is no need for anybody to say we have a monopoly of power.”
Meanwhile, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Uche Nwosu, recently insisted that the in 2027 because former President Buhari completed eight years in office.
