Atiku Abubakar, a former Vice President has advised governors from all states to come together and address issues facing the nation as a national challenge, not with a regional mindset.
Atiku in a series of tweets on Sunday, May 16, 2021, said although he understands the necessity of meetings and decisions made by governors, it is, however, not the best solution.
His tweets read: “Governors representing some states have met. And I completely understand the necessity of their meeting and the wisdom of their decisions. But no matter how much you try to clap with one hand, the vibrations will not be the same as when you clap with two hands.

For too long, we have erroneously thought that the power to make effective changes lies at Aso Rock. But without the states, nobody can get to Aso Rock.
