Former Governor of Jigawa State who is currently running as Presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Sule Lamido has made it clear that ex president Olusegun Obasanjo cannot be his political God-Father because he was in politics long before Obasanjo.
In an interview with newsmen at the residence of General Jeremiah Useni, during a solidarity visit in Jos, Sule Lamido said: “I was in PDP before former President Olusegun Obasanjo became president. I do not have a godfather, but I respect everyone in our party. We have the same aspiration as PDP members.”
He stressed that the rumour going round that he is being sponsored by former president Obasanjo is unfounded, adding that he is running for the position on his own conviction and determination to correct all the problems created by the the government of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
