Sule Lamido, former governor of Jigawa state, says Nigerians
now see the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as their only hope.
Speaking during a programme on Channels Television, on
Sunday, the former governor said the ongoing arrangements by the party with
regards to the 2023 general election are for the interest of the country.
He said the consultations by PDP stakeholders across the
country will further promote the image of the party.
“In PDP, whatever we do is purely for Nigeria’s interest,
not for us. People see the PDP as the only hope in Nigeria today,” Lamido said.
“We look at what do we come up with and Nigerians will be
comfortable with it and will give them the environment that will restore mutual
love and trust for each other.
“To me, before you do anything else, we need to restore the
trust among ourselves.
“Apparently, in Nigeria today, we don’t trust each other. We
don’t believe in each other anymore. Our common bond is not there anymore. Our
common bond is humanity.”
Some aspirants in the PDP have begun consultations across
the country ahead of the party’s presidential primary election.
During the Niger state PDP stakeholders’ meeting on Saturday, Nyesom Wike, Rivers governor, said there was nothing wrong with a consensus candidate if it is based on equity, justice and fairness.
