BREAKING NEWS: Sule Lamido Says Nigerians Brought Hardship Upon Themselves

Abuja, Nigeria — Former Governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has stated that the current economic hardship facing Nigerians is a result of their own choices. Speaking in an interview with BBC Hausa, he said he no longer feels pity for the people because they are responsible for their situation.

Lamido said: “Anyone who has a voter’s card, knows APC, knows PDP, knows their candidates, and still goes ahead to vote—who should he blame if not himself?” According to him, the poor decisions made by voters have directly led to today’s inflation and economic struggles.

He further stated that instead of constant complaints, citizens should turn to prayers and seek divine help to correct the mistakes they made at the polls. “If you know you’ve made a wrong choice during elections, then commit to prayer—perhaps you’ll be able to fix it next time,” he said.

When asked whether President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had ever reached out to him for advice on addressing the country’s challenges, Sule Lamido responded: “I have never been contacted, and I know I will not be contacted. Because that’s not the path this government is taking.”
