“You are experienced in all the places you served. From time to time, we need to come around, consult and brief you on some things”, he said.Mohammed told the team that he believed in the PDP because the stalwarts rose on the back of the platform to attain their current standing.“We know that we came from the ANPP (All Nigeria Peoples Party), but certainly whatever we have become, it’s courtesy of this party.”The governor added that the issues discussed were about “some grey areas” which were “not for public consumption”.
