A former Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has declared his willingness to support any political arrangement, within or outside the Peoples Democratic Party, that will ensure Nigeria’s security and stability ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Lamido stated this on Tuesday while speaking with journalists in Kano.
“I believe in Nigeria. So any arrangements, be it within or outside the Peoples Democratic Party, that will secure and save Nigeria, I am ready to work with it in 2027,” he said.
Lamido, a former Minister of Foreign Affairs, stated that contrary to recent speculations that he might decamp to the ADC, he remains in the PDP.
“I’m still in PDP, even though PDP has some problems, but I cannot renounce my history. I can’t simply walk out of my skin and crawl in flesh and blood and be conferred with a smaller skin called ADC. I cannot,” he said.
He noted that the PDP had honoured him with key positions, including Minister of Foreign Affairs and Governor of Jigawa State.
“So, I cannot simply renounce my history, my legacy and my heritage and say, ‘Today I got something new’. I am out of PDP. I will not do that,” Lamido said.
Reacting to the demand and agitation for additional states in the country, the former governor said that even though the agitation for more states is legitimate, the creation of the states would not solve the multifaceted challenges bedevilling the country.
“Will the creation of new states solve our problems – insecurity, poverty, hunger and division between the North and the South? There are more pressing issues than creating additional states,” he said.
Reacting to the recent visit of Senator Rabi’u Kwankwaso to President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Lamido said the former Kano governor had every right to do so.
