A founding member of Arewa Consultative Forum, (ACF) Tanko Yakasai has asked the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, to be patient after losing the presidential election to Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Yakasai said politics is not learnt in school but a continuous process.
The former Liaison Officer to former President Shehu Shagari on a television programme, said Obi must learn to be patient, adding that the former Anambra State helmsman is just new in politics.
“He was a banker and now a politician. He is contesting election for the first time and it is in process. I plead with him to be patient enough.
“You don’t learn politics in school. You learn through [the] process and I’m sure he’ll be a good politician and be successful if only he can endure. In this kind of situation, you see people speaking from different perspectives.
“If somebody is not happy with the outcome of the election you don’t expect him to praise the process but it’s another matter if you ask another person. I’m not surprised.”
