Sule Lamido: APC Dividing Nigeria Along Ethnic Lines by todayng: 10:37pm On Nov 30, 2015
Former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido has said that not only the government of the Peoples Democratic People, PDP, has divided the country, saying that the ruling APC government is deeply dividing Nigeria along ethnic and political divide.
Shortly after he received a certificate of award of excellent service in Kano, Lamido decried the desperation among the spokespersons of governments who couldn’t speak the truth to the electorates on the government’s wrongdoings and dividends of democracy.
He said, “I may sound a little different of what is today Nigeria. Because in today Nigeria, everything is politics and there are very strong divides.
“One is either here or there and even those who are arbiters or referees or monitors if stand on your own belief you will be accused by both sides. We are going through a very difficult political evolution with so many distortions and the 1999 Constitution is compounding Nigeria’s problem”.
“If one goes through the social media before the 2015 election, everything evil was PDP, that PDP was Boko Haram, PDP was fuel shortage, PDP was poverty, PDP was agony, PDP was fake and was dividing Nigeria, PDP was looting Nigeria, in fact, everything evil was PDP.”
He, however disclosed that the APC now represents the evils which the PDP was accused of in the past.
He said, “Everything PDP in the past is now with the present APC. PDP was throwing bombs, bombs are being thrown now, PDP was fuel shortage, there is fuel shortage now, PDP was killing Muslims, Muslims are being killed now, PDP was causing poverty and hunger, it is the same thing with the APC today. PDP was promoting ethnic politics, it is the same thing now with the APC.”
When contacted, the Secretary, Elders Committee of the Kano APC, Alhaji Saleh Jili, said Lamido’s comment should be ignored on the grounds that he is seeking for relevance, having lost out in the present political dispensation.
He added that the PDP has failed Nigerians in many respects, having enthroned poverty, unemployment, impunity and corruption, saying that the development prompted Nigerians to vote the party out of power.

This coming from someone who could not utter a word of criticism to the "drunken master of otueke's" govt, for fear of EFCC.

Well Alhaji Lamido, you might want to also add that EFCC has divided your family along Kwarruption lines.
