Lamido Warns PDP of Risks Ahead of 2027 Elections

Sule Lamido, a prominent figure in the People's Democratic Party (PDP), has expressed concerns that the party may risk losing its influence in the upcoming 2027 elections. He specifically highlights the internal divisions within the PDP, particularly criticizing the faction led by Wike.

Lamido argues that the party's historical significance, founded in 1998, is being undermined by these factions, which he believes do not represent the interests of the Nigerian people. He emphasizes the importance of returning to the party's foundational principles and ideologies to ensure its survival and effectiveness in Nigerian politics.

Lamido warns that the ongoing conflicts within the party could inadvertently benefit the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its leadership under Tinubu. He calls for a united front and a caretaker committee to address the party's challenges, stressing that the PDP must focus on its historical legacy and the sacrifices made by its founders to restore its position in Nigerian politics.
