Buhari and Tinubu betrayed Nigerians, pushed country into poverty – Ex-governor Sule Lamido

Former Jigawa governor Sule Lamido has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of betraying Nigerians and worsening their hardship.

Speaking at the expanded caucus of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Dutse, Lamido said the administrations of Muhammadu Buhari and Bola Tinubu had failed to deliver on their promises.

“Since Buhari and now Tinubu, Nigerians are suffering. Poverty is everywhere, youths are jobless, and the economy is collapsing. They say they are fighting for Nigeria, but in reality, they only fight for themselves and their pockets,” he said.

Lamido, who has been active in politics for more than four decades, recalled his involvement in the PRP struggles of 1979.

He said Jigawa’s political heritage of integrity and sacrifice must not be betrayed, adding that politics was never meant to be about “insults or selfish ambition” but about justice, fairness, and service to the people.

The former governor described the PDP as the only alternative capable of restoring dignity, equity, and justice to Nigeria.

“I have been part of this struggle since the 1970s. I know what it means to fight for democracy and for the poor.

“Tinubu’s government, just like Buhari’s, has failed Nigerians. Instead of relief, there is corruption, hardship, and arrogance of power,” he said.

Lamido urged members of the PDP to remain united and disciplined to lead Nigeria back to progress.y

“I believe in Jigawa, I believe in the PDP, and I believe we can reclaim our dignity. Let us not be deceived by empty promises. Let us remember our history and protect our future,” he added.
