the Jigawa State
Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has begun to speak
in parables as his body language during the signing
into law of the 2013 budget is instructive
It was at the signing of the 2013 Budget held at
the Conference Hall of the Jigawa Government
House, Dutse. But something was obviously
unusual; the Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, had
tactfully begun to bid the state farewell. This was
palpable as he made reflections on the number of
years that have passed by, how he started and
elevated the status of the state to where it is
today.
For him, Jigawa is now a cynosure of all eyes,
especially when compared to other states created
along side with it in 1991 by the General Ibrahim
Babangida administration. Pondering the remaining
two years left for him to tidy up his contract with
the people of Jigawa, Lamido picked up his pen
and officially signed the budget into law with an
estimated N115bn and other documents brought
before him by the Commissioner of Finance, Alhaji
Nasiru Umar Roni.
The Governor recalled with nostalgia , six years
ago when he assumed office and that he was able
to sign the budget for the sixth time elicited mixed
feelings, more so for one who may be seeing the
two years as somewhat insufficient to round off.
As Governor when he newly assumed office, he did
not waste time questioning why the state remained
backward; rather, he embarked on that which he
knew would impact positively on the lives of the
people. "This could help those coming behind us to
also emulate what we are able to put down as
solid foundation for the state within the period of
our stewardship," he said, reminiscing.
Most of those who listened to him went home with
the notion that the man was indirectly pointing an
end to his second term and at the same time,
craving for a successor with foresight who would
be concerned with the yearnings and aspirations of
the people as his administration.
In a hushed voice that moved some of his disciples
to tears after interpreting what he was driving it,
Lamido prayed for a worthy successor come 2015.
His choice words, that day, ran contrary to what
typified him when he newly assumed office as the
Governor in 2007. Apart from the affection and
pity that the speech evoked, the wordings directly
weakened the nerves.
But there were posers from this. They include: why
did Lamido sound more like a clergyman contrary
to his usual political sagacity and braggadocios,
typical of a politician of his standing. Those who
knew him could tell that his statement did not
come with the usual fire that characterized the
Governor's speech whenever he spoke.
Yet, it was nothing puzzling to those acquainted
with the concept power and its capacity to make
things happen. That power is transient was the
crux of his teaching that day. The reality, however,
is that Lamido may have shown a rare example in
the understanding of power. By consciously
psyching himself to leaving office whenever his
time is up, he was believed to have taken a critical
step in the proper use of power.
Mindful of the precept that no matter how good a
leader is, he would one day leave power, especially
from an office tenured. Even if not, death might
come some day to permanently take him off the
stage.
Many of the people who spoke to THISDAY at
the venue of the event confirmed that the brief
remarks made by the governor during the signing
of the 2013 was an indication of the fact that
Lamido's tenure is just about to round off and that
his main concern is a successor among the rank
and file that are warming up.
Even then, emphasis has also been on the fact that
whoever would succeed Lamido must be someone
in his good book because anything short of that
would be politically unrealistic.
"I am quite aware that working with me needs
little patience because of my nature. But certainly
once there is tolerance in the way I go about my
things, success shall be recorded at the end of the
day."
This, again, has brought to the fore, Lamido's
alleged presidential ambition which is fast gaining
grounds on the turf. The rumoured Lamido/Rotimi
Amaechi ticket has become a major distraction in
the polity. Already, their posters and banners are
everywhere including vehicles and strategic
locations in the country.
But there are those who believed that Lamido
might be challenged to throw his hat in the ring if
the president, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, decides to
seek re-election. To think that Lamido is seen as
ever ready to face a bigger challenge makes it
plausible. It may not also be unconnected to this
calculation that the PDP Board of Trustees
Chairman, Chief Tony Anenih, visited Jigawa State
recently.
It is public knowledge that Anenih begged Lamido
not to leave PDP for another party, adding he was
confident Lamido as a highly principled person
would not mull such an option, considering the role
he played in the formation of PDP.
But Lamido's response was not far-fetched. Hear
him: "No matter what, I am going to be in PDP. I
cannot labour and give birth to a child and then
abandon the same child for another or leave my
house for another person. I prefer to remain in
the PDP. After all, is it not the so called APC that
is calling us all sorts of names? What then are they
going to do with thieves, hooligans and or rogues
in their party or are the people they are accusing
out of PDP or what?"
For those who can interpret Lamido's utterances
and demeanor, it is about a game which keeps no
permanent friends but maintains a steady interest.
Therefore, it is only instructive that the PDP
handles the grievances of the governors with care
or faces the consequences of their decision.
Besides, if political heavyweights like the late
Mohammad Abubakar Rimi and former vice-
president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, once dumped
the PDP for other parties, before retracing their
steps, the indications are that nothing is impossible,
given the present scenario. To that extent, no one
would be amazed if the like of Lamido joins forces
with like-minds to fight a common political enemy,
if only doing so would be profiting to their
calculation and aspiration.
