2023: PDP Ready To Welcome Back Former Members -Lamido

The former governor of Jigawa State and member of the Board of Trustees (BoTs) of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mallam Sule Lamido on Monday said there is no crime or taboo if those that left the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) returned to them after their sojourn elsewhere.
Lamido stated this in Dutse while addressing PDP stalwarts from across the state during a party meeting to replace officers at the state, zonal and ward levels that have either died or cross carpeted to other political parties.
According to him, the death of Dr Alex Ekweme and Solomon Lar or the decamping of Barnabas Gemade and Audu Ogbe who were all former PDP chairmen have not reduced the party’s strength neither the departure of “even former president Obasanjo that dumped the party after he was picked from the gulag and made the president.”
Lamido predicted that by 2023 Nigerians would witness the demise of political parties that were built around certain personalities, “so it wouldn’t matter if people such as Rotimi Amaechi, Abdullahi Adamu, Danjuma Goje left.”
He further explained that the PDP had survived even when Atiku Abubakar and Rabi’u Kwankwaso have dumped the party after serving as Vice president for eight years and governor for eight years, respectively under it only for them to return which is an indication that suggests that it (PDP) belongs to the people.
His words: “In politics, there is no shame when one eats their vomit because there shouldn’t be any compulsion in one’s political ideology.
