Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa State on Tuesday emerged from a meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, giving an indication that Peoples Democratic Party stakeholders will beg former President Olusegun Obasanjo who dumped the party on Monday.

Lamido, who is the North West Coordinator of Goodluck/Sambo Presidential Campaign, told State House correspondents that Obasanjo remained the father of all.

He said Jonathan and all the state governors are creations of the former President.

He explained that it is only appropriate that when a father is angry with his children, the children should beg him.

Lamido said, “Baba (Obasanjo) is more than a party man. He is an icon, a national symbol and a leader and an inventor, a creator of all the institutions today in Nigeria, from the President to the governors who are his own sons.

“And so, when a father is angry with his own children, we will only say we are sorry to him. But then, we cannot be renounced for whatever it is.

“If you do any political DNA of our blood, you will find his (Obasanjo’s) blood in us. No matter what we are, we may not be able to live up to his expectations.

“We might have made some mistakes, but abandoning us is not the solution because the country is first before anything else. So, he is our baba even up to the President.

“Obasanjo is our baba no matter what. He is angry with us, but then, what do we do? He gave us the life at a time when Nigerians were fighting us, he stood for us. Since 2011, in 2007, he stood firm for us.

“He is our father. And so, if we made some mistakes, we are only human because we are heading human institutions. And I think by the time he reflects, how could he abandon his own children like that. Wherever we are, we are right in his heart. He feels for us, he cares for us.”

When asked to be specific on whether they will go and beg Obasanjo to return to the party, Lamido said such issue was not the kind he would announce publicly.

“When there is some kind of misunderstanding between a father and a child, you don’t go to NTA or any other media to say you are going to do this.

“I mean the bond between us is so strong. I know he is equally pained. I know what he is going through because he is our father, but I will not tell you the strategy because when he was producing us, you were not there, when he was making us, were you there?,” the governor said.

When told that some party chiefs had already said they would not miss the former President, Lamido said Jonathan, who he described as Obasanjo’s first child, had not said so.

“But then, the first child is the President, did he say so?,” he asked.

When again asked if Obasanjo’s constant criticism of the President does not worry him, Lamido said when parents get old, they tend to manifest signs of old age.

Season of 'open letters' is over, it's time for 'closed letters of apology'

We go soon know whether na only Lamido waka come

And Obasanjo will keep humiliating them like the filthy beggars they are.

Where are senseless TANoids defending PDP?

Without Obasanjo, it is unimaginable to see the existance of Jonathan. I laugh when some clowns insult OBJ because of the coins they get.

this is interesting

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

obj................

some foolish nobody on NL will not agree with Lamido,.

Oga jona has to personally apologize to Baba for calling him a motor park tout. Although Baba had been angry at being sidelined by Oga Jona since he won the 2011 elections with Baba's help and influence (he got no ministerial slots, when people like TY Danjuma got 2 slots and his loyalists in PDP were removed from party postions and his enermies were installed), but what broke the carmels back and got Baba raving mad was being called a motor park tout by Jona.

Mods, why is this not on the front page yet?

Hmmm...dz party is never bereft of dirty tricks.....

The above quote is the main message...

so you guys are saying we presido no get say without OBJ. oya mk ehm squezze am like orange juice now.ghost leader monkey they wrk , bamboo they chop & control.

WHO NEEDS HIM?

Front page.

Just yesterday, they were celebrating his exit. they even expelled him. now, they want him back. confused set of people. anyway, their end is very near.

Begging him would make him think he is relevant.
with or without OBJ GEJ is going to win the presidential elections.

Sule is stranded now that the boat he rides sank

Obasanjo's vituperations against Jonathan is a sign of old age like Lamido said and I think the earlier he's taking to an old people's home the better for him.
Elder statesmen are supposed to behave responsibly and maturedly but Obasanjo has refused to act his age.

Old men bring problems

A prayer for Buhari supporters
They told us we are leaders of tomorrow and here we are today, they are still dragging the tomorrow with us. So Buhari supporters
May you clock 73 before you actualize your dreams. You don't need to say Amen, it has been sealed already.

That's the crux of the matter.
