………….Says is the first former Governor in Nigeria Politics to be charged to court with his two sons by EFCC…
A group, South~South concerned Youths membered by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP faith, through Hon John All well has called out a one-time governor of Jigawa state, Mr. Sule Lamido for his attack on the Rivers State governor Ezenwo Nyesome Wike, describing him as a major problem in the party.
Allwell, who signed the statement released on Tuesday night in reaction to an interview Sule Lamido granted to Channels TV the same day, asked the Jigawa-born politician “shut up and stop exhibiting your illiteracy”
The state made available to Truthlive.net described Sule Lamido as one of the most corrupt politicians in Nigeria who remains the only former governor who was arrested with his two sons and are still being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC.
He said: ”It is a known fact that despite Lamido,s limited education, party politics has exposed him beyond his mental capacity.
Hon. John Allwell who was speaking on behalf of South~South concerned Youths reminded the former Governor of Jigawa state that he is old enough to resolve the crisis and bring peace to PDP instead of playing his current divisive role.
The statement reads in parts;
“The Party and Atiku should be wary of him as an unfriendly friend. Recall he was one of those who sold Jigawa to APC in 2015 and hasn’t been able to win ward election to date. It is sad to note that after the PDP convention and presidential primaries, Lamido has stood against internal crises resolution moves and has been fanning embers of discord”.
It is sad to note that his tenure as Governor of Jigawa State is best remembered for the corruption that rocked the state culminating in his arrest and shameful arraignment with his two sons on allegations of siphoning over N50bn from the State treasury.
He is the first former Governor in Nigeria Politics to be charged to court with his two sons by EFCC. Sule Lamido should allow peace to reign in PDP and play the role of an old man genuinely desirous of Peace in the Party. We need to remind him that he is not the National Publicity Secretary of the Party. He should shut up and let Peace reign.
Truthlive.net had earlier reported the interview on channels tv where Sule Lamide described the reconciliation committee trying to resolve the differences between Atiku Abubakar and Gov Wike as “well-wishers” who are on their own mission, stating that Gov Wike is not an issue in the PDP
