President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Tuesday made a light-hearted remark about the Senate President, Godswil Akpabio, during the commissioning of the Nigeria Revenue Service building.
Speaking during the ceremony, Tinubu joked that he could send the Senate President to the other side to represent him.
“Senate President, I will send you to the other side to represent me, and then you can scatter them anyway you like. They’re confused,” the President said.
The President’s remark comes amid rising political tension involving the African Democratic Congress (ADC), which has alleged that the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), is attempting to destabilise it.
The ADC had also claimed it faced intimidation in securing event facilities, an allegation that was denied by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike on Monday.
