2027: Amaechi, El-Rufai, Kwankwaso, Wamakko, and others should return to PDP to sack Tinubu says Lamido.
Former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido has called on opposition leaders in Nigeria to implement a strategic and focused method to challenging President Bola Tinubu’s administration and the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He urged them to set aside sentiment, emotion, and personal grievances in their political fight and come together for the upcoming 2027 election.
Lamido made the remarks during an annual Ramadan breakfast with leaders and supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from all 27 local government areas of Jigawa State.
The event which held at his residence in Bamaina, Birninkudu Local Government Area, provided a platform for discussing the country’s political landscape.
Expressing concern over the economic instability, Lamido accused the APC government of losing focus and failing to address citizens’ growing hardship. He warned that politicians must remain focused and avoid personal biases if they hope to defeat Tinubu in 2027 eection. According to him, success in the opposition’s struggle will not come from fighting state institutions out of personal disappointment but from prioritizing the collective national interest.
The former governor also proposed reconciliation to former PDP members who had defected to the APC, urging them to return to their original party. He said many of them had faced persecution and mistreatment in their new political home and should reconsider their decision. He argued that returning to the PDP would not be disgraceful, as it was the party that had originally provided them with the platform to thrive in Nigerian politics.
Lamido expressly mentioned former governors and political leaders such as Rotimi Amaechi, Nasir El-Rufai, Rabiu Kwankwaso, and Aliyu Wamakko, urging them to reunite with the PDP and work together to “liberate Nigeria from the APC atrocity.”
He dismissed the idea that other parties like the Social Democratic Party (SDP) or the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) could successfully challenge Tinubu in 2027 election, insisting that only the PDP had the strength and structure to mount a formidable opposition.
