Former Jigawa State Governor and PDP founding member Sule Lamido has claimed that former President Olusegun Obasanjo would have been nothing without the PDP.
In response to the former president’s recent endorsement of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Labour Party LP, Lamido made the remarks.
According to rumors, Peter Obi has received the support of former president Olusegun Obasanjo.
Lamido, however, argues that it is dishonorable for Obasanjo to support a candidate from a different party as opposed to the party that helped him become the success he is now.
“All that he is saying is because he was Nigeria’s former president under the party(PDP) that invented him, honoured him and dignified him and give him an image globally ”
“Twenty-five years he will not say what he was saying, so its very shame that a PDP invention will now castigate the party”
“Obasanjo is my boss I know, but he is a human and is bound to make mistakes, so he made a big mistake endorsing a party outside his party”
“On the issue of power rotation, people are dishonest, when it comes to a sense of justice and fairness.
“When he was in office, he tried for the third term. Is that fair, is that justice? It’s not. I respect him but we have to stand by our tradition, the history of our political party, our philosophy, and PDP made Nigeria what it’s today”
“He is endorsing Peter Obi because he is either angry that Atiku Abubakar and Bola Tinubu, are strong characters and personalities, so the fear of these very strong men is what is haunting him.”
