Sule Lamido Critiques Nigerian Leaders Over Governance Issues

Sule Lamido, the former governor of Jigawa State, expressed his concerns regarding the political landscape in Nigeria, stating that President Bola Tinubu, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and Peter Obi are more focused on acquiring power than on the welfare of the Nigerian people. Speaking to journalists in Dutse, Jigawa State, after inaugurating the PDP's 2027 Governorship Campaign Council, Lamido criticized the ongoing debate about the removal of the petroleum subsidy, describing it as a disagreement among members of the same political establishment benefiting from a dysfunctional governance system.

He emphasized that the lack of law and order has allowed corruption, banditry, and terrorism to flourish, accusing successive administrations of failing to address these root problems. Lamido argued that the current political parties, including the APC, ADC, and NDC, are part of the problem, as they harbor individuals who benefit from the existing system, which he believes is responsible for Nigeria's economic difficulties.
