Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido has blasted President Goodluck Jonathan for the perilous state of Nigeria today, insisting that it is the tyranny of bad leadership brought about by the present administration that is responsible for Nigeria’s woes.
Lamido also slammed Jonathan regarding the ongoing National Conference stating that it is capable of tearing Nigeria apart.
He spoke during a working visit of the Bank of Agriculture led by its CEO, Dr. Falalu Santuraki to Dutse, the state capital.
He said, “Some comments and statements from some delegates to the conference is disappointing and a threat to the unity of the nation.”
“It is unfortunate that our last line of hope, which comprises the emirs, clerics and elder statesmen, has been assembled somewhere and are busy insulting one another in the name of national conference. Believe me, if the situation continues, our nation’s unity is in danger.”
“If the PDP or APC members of the House of Assembly abuse one another, it is understandable because it is democracy for one party to challenge another.”
“It is quite unfortunate that today in Nigeria, hundreds of innocent people are killed, like chicken on a daily basis for no just reason and nobody cared to talk about it.”
He added, “It is only in Nigeria that $20billion would be declared missing from the public treasury, but no one cared to talk about it because leaders can dare any huge consequences in bargaining and securing their political interests.
“The leadership in this country is totally disconnected from the people. All its policies are formulated in parallel with the needs, plight and interest of the common man and the country”.
“The masses are today living in agony due to high level of injustice, denial, imposition, abuse of office ensured by the tyranny of bad leadership.”
