Nigeria’s President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari has said that he is willing to work with any leader of the Senate, irrespective the gender or tribe he may be.
Buhari made the affirmation on Wednesday in a press release issued to dispel insinuations in the media that he was in support of a particular Senator’s emergence as Leader or that he belonged to any camp pushing for the emergence of a leader from a particular part of the country.
Buhari said: “I am prepared to work with any leaders that the House or Senate selects “It doesn’t matter who the person is or where he or she is from.”
He added that these insinuations were probably born out of people’s expectations based on the way things had happened in the past, but reminded Nigerians that change has truly come.
Buhari maintained that there is due process for the selection of leaders of the National Assembly and he will not interfere in that process.
“My administration does not intend to repeat the same mistakes made by previous governments,” Buhari said.
He thus urged the media and Nigerians generally to shift their thinking from the business-as-usual mentality.
