Nonetheless, Onanuga emphasized the President’s willingness to collaborate with Atiku and Obi. In an interview with Punch, the presidential aide pointed out that the President has consistently expressed his intention to work harmoniously with the opposition.

Onanuga stated, “If you read the President’s statement yesterday (Thursday), you will notice he extended an olive branch to them, saying he will welcome their participation in his government. This has been consistent with his declaration on May 29 when he assumed office.”

He went on to reiterate the President’s view that he considers those in the opposition as part of the same family, residing in the same house but in different rooms.

The President remains committed to this declaration and is open to alternative ideas that the opposition may provide.

Onanuga also noted that, despite the Supreme Court’s judgment, both Atiku and Obi had maintained their silence 24 hours after the ruling.

When reminded that Obi was currently out of the country, the presidential aide stated that physical distance should not be an obstacle, as the world is interconnected.

He emphasized that nothing prevents Obi from extending his congratulations to the President, signifying his acceptance of the Supreme Court’s final verdict on the matter.
