President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Alhaji Sule Lamido

Sule Lamido, a former governor of Jigawa state, has declared that President Bola Tinubu is dragging Nigerians to their grave

Politics in Nigeria is nothing new to Sule Lamido. Before serving as former President Olusegun Obasanjo's Minister of Foreign Affairs, he was a member of the House of Representatives during the Second Republic and the governor of Jigawa State from 2007 to 2015. In this Sunday interview from Kano with Daily Trust, Lamido discusses a number of national topics, including the suffering in the nation, Tinubu's economic policies, and court rulings that purportedly award opposition states to the APC.

His statement:

He claimed that the Chief Judge of Nigeria is employed by the APC, which is why the party is winning legal battles.

He said, “they are implementing what they promised you agony, pain, hardship, anguish and insecurity. You don't feel secure, you are poor, your take home pay can't even buy you a bag of rice, so you are now harvesting what you planted.

“When he said he will continue from where Buhari stopped, what has he done? When you say you want to continue from where Buhari stopped, where do you start from? From insecurity, poverty or hunger? Tinubu said he will continue from where Buhari stopped, so there is no distinction.

“Buhari lacked the political sagacity, vision, commitment, pedigree to answer or explain the issues he was questioned on../

“Now, after eight years, Tinubu came and said he will continue from where Buhari stopped, so the next destination is our grave because the journey has started with a trailer load of poverty. hunger, insecurity, hate, despondency, frustration, pain, agony, and the destination is the grave.

“Look at the appeal in APC, the appeal in APC was corruption, favouritism, nepotism because whatever you are, if you come there, you are safe. You can steal, you can do anything you want because all they know is the numbers and because they have more crooks in the party who are willing to manipulate and impose arbitrarily, that was why they won the election and you see their government.

“When they try to win any election and it doesn't work, they will say 'okay' go to tribunal', and by the time you go there, they are there earlier than you, isn't it?”
