By our reporter| A former governor of Jigawa State, Dr. Sule Lamido, says he cannot for any reason pray for President Muhammadu Buhari to succeed in office because he was called a thief and chased out of power by the President.
The former governor added that he cannot also advise the president on ways to make his government better for Nigerians.
According to him, it is left for Nigerians to weight this administration and see the difference so as to let All Progressives Congress, APC, continue or vote them out.
Lamido who stated this in an interview with BBC Hausa on the sidelines of Nigeria’s 60th Independence anniversary, noted that Nigeria has recorded a number of successes despite many setbacks.
Lamido said, “You can’t say in the past 60 years of our independence that there is no progress, there is.
“But, honestly, our leaders are not taking advantage of the natural resources we have in the country to make us progress and live better.”
“I am from an opposition party, no matter how much I love Buhari or his cabinet, I can’t enter mosque and pray for him.
“People called us (PDP) thieves and voted APC.
“So, it is left for them to judge now.
“If Buhari is doing good, they know and let him lead Nigeria forever, but if he is doing wrong, we are always there to come and takeover in order to do the right thing.”
