Alhaji Sule Lamido, the former governor
of Jigawa state, has reviewed the latest history of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) leadership, its crisis and outcome of disagreement between its
members -- becoming Muhammadu Buhari the president of Nigeria.
Alhaji Sule Lamido |
Lamido, who spoke in his Bamaina hometown at
the weekend on December 3-4, stated that all the leaders, including him, are to
be blamed for the party’s troubles.
He also reiterated that the PDP remains the
party about and for the people of Nigeria stressing that and it will always be
beyond any personality.
On stability, reconciliation and crisis, Lamido
said: "It is not about one’s
own personality or one’s ego, but it is about this party called PDP which
carries the Nigerian hope which was able to get Nigerians stabilised in spite
of the vilification and propaganda and prepared the ground fully for Buhari to
come in and become a president because if there is any great beneficiary of PDP
in Nigeria, it is Buhari.
Between 1998 and
1999, there was no way Buhari could have gotten the opportunity to contest, he
can’t contest I don’t mean to insult him, but it is simply a historical fact
that all those that are now calling the shots, is all, thanks to PDP because
the country has been stabilised and reconciled."
Why APC
should thank PDP
"So, anybody
in the villa or government Houses or wherever they are, who are now enjoying
this APC thing are simply because PDP was able to restore the country and made
it possible for them.
But today, no
matter how big you are as a thief, if you go to APC, they would accept you,
look at those going to APC in the last two to three weeks, these are people who
are literally on trial by the EFCC.
Maybe because the
PDP couldn’t stand up for them, that’s why they are going there or maybe APC
has no qualms about fraud by accepting them with the intention of cleaning
them," Lamido concluded.
