The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has called on President Bola Tinubu to carry traditional rulers along, especially in tackling insecurity.
A source told Peoples Gazette that Mr Dokpesi died while exercising on the treadmill in his home.
Tinubu “has to do that because the armed forces have undergone a lot of processes that need to be put together and make it an efficient, well-led armed forces.”
“As far as I’m concerned, I’m satisfied that we are still existing as a united nation after that little fracas,” Mr Gowon said in a brief ARISE TV interview on Monday.
Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress has been sworn in as Nigeria’s 16th president.
“I didn’t start this race hoping it will be over in a year. We are in a battle with an entrenched establishment. We are in a long battle.”
“The electoral management body shares more than 60 per cent of the blame. Because if they do their work well, the politicians will have no choice but to follow the rules.”
Mr Tinubu, 71, will succeed President Muhammadu Buhari for a tenure of four years after taking oath of office on May 29.
In a recent interview with the BBC, however, Mr Shehu, who served as Mr Buhari’s spokesman for eight years, said he regrets his statements on the killing of the Borno rice farmers.
Mr Tinubu was on March 1 declared winner of the February 25th presidential election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and would be sworn in on May 29.
