Former governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido has taken ex-Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State to the cleaners.
Lamido said: “El-Rufai is driven by emotion and not by the general well-being of the people. We should not fight President Bola Ahmed Tinubu just because we are angry at him or seek revenge.”
“Leadership should be about prioritising the country’s well-being rather than personal emotions.”
“With all due respect, how does he expect us in PDP to leave and join another party?”
“The PDP that we built is the same party that made him who he is today. How can a grandson claim his grandfather knows nothing?”
“But now, he claims he got the counsel of former President Muhammadu Buhari.”
“If he truly had the power he once boasted of, why did he have to seek Buhari’s counsel?”
“If PDP is struggling today, it is still the party that nurtured El-Rufai.”
“If he claims the PDP is dead, then he must remember that it is the party that gave him his political foundation. ‘’Whatever he has achieved today, PDP made it possible.”
“If I didn’t join APC in 2014 when I was invited, and they left PDP out of anger, why are they now leaving APC? What has APC done to them?”
“Leadership is about patience, foresight, and working for the peace of the people and the nation.”
“If you allow emotions to dictate your decisions, you will never lead objectively.”
For those who don’t know, El-Rufai last week defected from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Besides, El-Eufai had called on all his supporters to join the SDP to dethrone the APC come 2027.
