But, Mohammed said at a function organised by Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi to celebrate 2019 Eid-el-Maulud in Bauchi on Sunday that the story was not true.
“As far as we are concerned, there is no conflict or tension between Bauchi and Gombe states over oil discovery in border communities of the two states.
“The two states remain the same entity, Gombe was curved out of Bauchi, we are brothers and sisters, if oil is discovered in any of the border communities we are all the same,” he said.

Mohammed pointed out that those insinuating the conflict were enemies of progress.
He appealed to participants at the Maulud to observe traffic rules, in order to avoid accidents during the event.
Mohammed renewed call for mutual respect and peaceful coexistence among Nigerians.
