APC lack capacity to bring development to Nigerians, says Sule Lamido

The former governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido, said that the All Progressives Congress (APC) lacks the character and capacity to bring the needed development to Nigerians in all spheres of life.

While speaking last night on Trust TV’s Daily Politics, Lamido expressed that APC was formed only to grab power in the country, adding that it is a party that cannot conceive of good governance in the country.

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, explained that there is nobody in APC that is original, emphasising that the party is very corrupt.

He said, “All they (APC) say is PDP is dirty but they are poaching on our members to come and build their party. APC taking PDP members into their fold is corruption.”

The former governor observed that the just concluded convention of the PDP has created more chances for the party in the 2023 election, assuring that the victory of PDP signifies great hope for the country.

He stressed that the convention was not a PDP convention but a Nigerian convention, saying that with the level of insecurity, divisions and bad economy in the country today, Nigerians are yearning for change.

Lamido emphasized on how himself and other PDP leaders formed the G9 and G18 groups as the only way to stop General Sani Abacha’s transition programme and restore hope to Nigerians.

He explained they were able to address the outcome of June 12 and restore trust and love in the country.

The PDP chieftain recalled that when Abacha was nursing his transition ambition, they felt that it will not work, adding that themselves in the G9, late Bola Ige, late Solomon Lar, Adamu Ciroma and others formed the G9, adding that they believed that one cannot heal Nigeria if June 12 is not addressed.

He insisted that they formed the G9 to fight Abacha transition ambition and not his government, saying that after that, they formed the G18, wrote a memo to Abacha challenging his transition.
