Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has advised southern governors to stop their blaming President Muhammadu Buhari over the situation of the country.
According to him, governors across the country should also be blamed for the woes of the country.
Bello, who spoke during a programme on Channels Television, warned his counterparts in southern states not to hit the polity.
He said, “Let me caution each and every one of us, leaders across board including governors and all of the leaders across Nigeria that we should be careful about the words we use,” Bello warned.
“When we are talking of security, unity and national cohesion of Nigeria, as leaders and politicians, we should be careful about the words we use when we are addressing these various topical issues.
“When it is titled or when it appears as if you are fighting President Muhammadu Buhari, our father and our President, we are all getting it wrong because we get to where we are today as a result of maladministration of successive administrations.
“There have been collective failures across the board, so let’s not just blame it alone on the federal government or Mr President”.
Southern governors recently met in Asaba, Delta State, where they issued a communique demanding for the restructuring of the country, for Buhari to call for a national dialogue and the need to proffer solutions to different problems of the country.
