Crisis In PDP Shows Party Still VERY STRONG - Lamido

The former governor of Jigawa state, Sule Lamido, says the crisis currently rocking the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is an indication that the party is still strong.

Lamido told newsmen on Sunday that the party will certainly emerge stronger and bigger.VHe said it is normal for people to fight for what is “existent, valuable, worthy and important”.

“PDP is a big party that has history and it is a party of conglomeration of all Nigerians across divides.”  This is not our first crisis; if you go down our history from the formation of the party, you will notice that this is not the first time we are having crisis.

“You can remember that the late Sunday Awoniyi had battle of leadership with former Chairman Banabas Gemade. We also had crisis during Audu Ogbeh’s reign. You don’t fight for what is not in existence. PDP was in power for 16 years and the crisis and fight had always been with us. PDP will return to power in 2019 because it is a conglomeration of Nigerians,” he said.
