President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday, said he learned governance lessons from his critics who speak in the media.

“No matter what I do, they will insult me. I read the papers and I learn from their criticism because I can’t see it all,” Tinubu said during a town hall meeting with political leaders in Benue State.

Tinubu is visiting Benue, a hotbed of recent killings by armed herdsmen that claimed at least 100 lives.

Speaking to the Benue State Governor, Hyacinth Alia, he said, “Your political enemies don’t want you to succeed. Are you just realising that?”

He called on leaders from across the region to work together.

“We cannot do without another.

“I will want us to create a leadership committee now to meet in Abuja to fashion out a strategy for lasting peace. And I am ready to invest in that peace,” he said.
