In a fiery primetime interview on Arise TV on Saturday, former Jigawa State Governor and founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Sule Lamido, declared his readiness to align with any political force, regardless of its name or structure, to remove what he described as the divisive and incompetent government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“I am part of any arrangement, no matter the nomenclature or name, to remove the current government of incompetency, of insecurity, or of dividing the Nigerian family between North and South,” Lamido stated.

“I will be part of any arrangement, any chemistry, any configuration, whatever you may call it, if it’s going to remove this government that is on autopilot.”

When pressed specifically on whether he was part of the emerging Alliance for Democratic Action (ADA), Lamido stopped short of giving a direct endorsement but was emphatic about his determination:

“What you see, don’t panic. I don’t panic. I walk with my eyes wide open,” he said.
