Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State has said that Friday’s visit of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers to President- elect, Bola Tinubu was meant to lobby for appointment.

Wike and his Oyo State counterpart, Seyi Makinde on Friday paid a visit to the President-elect Bola Tinubu, at the Defence House, Abuja.

Wike and Makinde, who are members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), met with the president-elect alongside other governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The APC governors are Abubakar Bagudu of Kebbi State, Abubakar Badaru of Jigawa and Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State

Wike and Makinde are members of the G5 governors, which include Samuel Ortom of Benue, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu and Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia States, all members of the PDP.

They worked against their party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and supported Tinubu of the APC in the 25 February election.

Tinubu won the presidential election in Oyo State, and pulled a surprise result in Rivers State, by defeating Peter Obi of the Labour Party and Atiku.

Speaking after the meeting, Makinde said elections are over, and the country must move toward governance.

“We are here to let him know that elections are over – this is governance and we will do our best to give him support,” Mr Makinde said.

Wike also expressed support for the incoming Tinubu administration and expressed optimism that he (Tinubu) will turn the country around.

“Just like my friend (Mr Makinde) said, a winner has emerged and therefore it is alright to give necessary support in the interest of Nigeria. I have the confidence that he has what it takes to turn Nigeria around,” he said.

Reacting to the visit of the two governors, Tambuwal in a tweet on his verified Twitter handle said ‘they’re lobbying for appointment’.

He accompanied the tweet with his picture laughing.

At least Wike can lobby for federal appointment from Tinubu.

Go and lobby for same from Atiku you supported now

The serial betrayal Tambuwal

If nah him nnko, he no go

Tambuwal can follow Atiku back to Dubai if he want. Atleast both Wike and Makinde won their respective state.

shameless lots....mandate thieves！this certainly will be a government of Ali baba and the forty thieves.

That Twitter account doesn't belong to Tambuwal, it is a parody account. You should investigate before publishing in your blog

If power is not that important, why is 3rd candidate disturbing our peace with his claims about winning the election with no evidence to back it up?

How are we sure it was indeed mandate that was stolen not manhood?

Lolll
Its quite a show to see how commoners and poor people charge on in support of this fifth columnist who put aside their differences to form a ring and a gang up to further loot and impoverish them and their children even yet unborn😁

we need affectionate leaders who are willing to turn things around for the good of the masses and not chop and lets chop government.

They betryed their party, now they are beggars!

Tambuwal will sit comfortably in the senate from northwest.

Northwest as a group can't be messed with.

What is your definition of betrayal? Cos to my best of understanding, Wike worked openly against Atiku

In which verse, chapter of lamentation book in the bible can we find this?

Hehehehehe .... Both wike and tambuwal are mad. They are suffering from dementia with Lewis Body. Both are a disgrace and disappointment to the Nigerian youths who advocate for Good Governance in Peter OBI. Tambuwal betrayed Wike and Wike betrayed PETER GREGORY OBI. They only care about themselves, they care not about us

It's really funny, Wike is trying do hard to be relevant. I would have love to see him in the upper chamber.

Why did he go for Senate again if no be for money?

Didn't Peter obi betray APGA?

Well, Tambuwal is a senator, Atiku still has about 8 PDP governors that are loyal to him, while Wike is now a beggar.

BTW, where are the remaining g5 governors?

LOL!

The same TAMBUWAL that betrayed him? imagine the audacity

Fact

Wike and Makinde are members of the G5 governors, which include Samuel Ortom of Benue, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu and Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia States, all members of the PDP

What are the two other governors from the South East waiting for? They should emulate Wike and rush to visit Tinubu. No need to be shy.
