The Sarkin Gobir and Madawaki of Ilorin Emirate, Yakubu Gobir, has appealed to Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq and Senator Saliu Mustapha to resolve their political differences and preserve the bonds of brotherhood and unity among the people of Ilorin.

The appeal followed the recent defection of Mustapha, who represents Kwara Central in the National Assembly, from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), amid reported political differences with the governor.

Gobir, in a statement made available to journalists in Ilorin on Tuesday, also urged supporters of both political leaders to refrain from personal attacks, provocative statements and campaigns of calumny.
