PDP vs APC: Lamido blasts Atiku over 2019 election

Former governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, has warned against politics of blackmail and hatred ahead of the 2019 general election.

He stressed that such would not help the existing democracy and Nigeria as a nation.

Lamido said this in a chat with newsmen in his Bamaina, Birninkudu Local Government Area country home in Jigawa State.

He condemned recent comments about the People Democratic Party, PDP, credited to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar

“Atiku is entitled to his opinion like any other Nigerian,” he said.

“Some people, especially politicians, should not be condemning others with different political ideology, interest or opinion,” he added.‎ Lamido, however, added that APC demonstrated that it cannot rule the country.

“There is no way Nigerians can be convinced again on falsehood, as in the past, to vote APC for second term in office because APC doesn’t know administration at all”, Vanguard quoted him as saying.
