DUTSE—The Chairman, fund raising committee for General Muhammadu Buhari Support Group, Mr Farouk Aliyu has cautioned Jigawa State governor, Sule Lamido to desist from attacking the personality of General Buhari at political gatherings.
Aliyu in an interview with journalists after the fund raising campaign organised in Dutse, said “Though we know Governor Lamido has problem, because some times he talk in support of General Buhari by asking the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP supporters to vote for him (Buhari) secretly during the forth coming elections.”
According to him Lamido openly criticised General Bahari and at the same time he showed support for President Goodluck Jonathan. “For this, I am assuring you that in Jigawa, Buhari will get over two million votes and Jonathan will get only but one vote, that of Lamido himself.
“General Buhari has never talked about Sule Lamido in anyway, under whatever circumstances. Buhari is not his mate, he is far ahead of Lamido. It is only Lamido that can double talk, criticise even Jonathan he always claimed to be supporting by asking his supporters not to vote for him.”
He also explained that Nigerians were ready to donate their money to General Buhari because they trust him. “The money realised from Nigerians through the sale of scratch cards will be used in hiring vehicles for campaigns, payment of agents during election as well as other logistic in support of the party.”
According to Aliyu, Governor Lamido was pained for the defection of one of his reps member representing Birninkudu/Buji federal constituency, Mr Sabo Nakudu, who is now the senatorial candidate of the APC in South-West senatorial zone.
