Former federal commissioner and the leader of Ijaw nation, Chief Edwin Clark, has charged President Muhammadu Buhari to treat all Nigerians equally irrespective of tribe, party or gender.

While speaking in Abuja when a group, Probity Ambassadors Organisation of Nigeria paid him a visit, Chief Clark called on all Nigerians to join hands together to help Buhari to succeed.

He added that the nation has come to stay and it must be moved forward.

“My advice to Mr. President and APC is to regard Nigeria as one. The attitude of winner takes all should not be employed.

“Definitely, he will bring development to the country and must satisfy the yearnings of all Nigerians. Those who voted for him and those who voted against him should be treated equally.

“We all own Mr. President and no one section owns him. We all want a Nigeria where everybody believes that we are one. Without the minority or the majority, one group can succeed”, Clark stated.

The elder statesman however stated that Buhari is fit and ready for the job.

Earlier, Clark had debunked reports in some quarters that he slumped and died after Goodluck Jonathan lost March 28 Presidential election.

” Why will I die because Jonathan lost election, Nigeria belongs to all of us. No one owns Nigeria. I like the speech of Buhari that he belongs to everybody”, he added.
