Dr. Yunusa Tanko, National Coordinator of the Adebayo-Bugaje Presidential Campaign Council, has reaffirmed his respect for his former principal, Peter Obi, dismissing reports that he insulted the former Anambra State governor.
Tanko said their separation was peaceful and based on mutual understanding, stressing that their different political paths had not affected the respect and friendship between them.
This was contained in a statement issued in Abuja by the Media and Communications Adviser of the campaign council, Comrade Mark Adebayo.
The former National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide also expressed gratitude to Obi for giving him the opportunity to serve as his aide and lead the movement.
He said he remained proud of his contributions during his time working with the former governor and appreciated the experience and responsibilities entrusted to him.
Tanko maintained that political differences should not be interpreted as personal hostility, insisting that his decision to pursue a different political direction would not diminish his regard for Obi.
He urged members of the public and media organisations to disregard reports suggesting that he attacked or insulted his former principal.
He also advised the media to rely on verified information from the campaign council rather than circulate unsubstantiated claims.
