Former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido has said that under the current administration of President Muhammadu Buhari the country is more divided.

He stated that for the last five years, Nigeria has been plunged into crisis and confusion. He said this at the commissioning of Rumuji-Ibaa-Obele-Isiokpo road in Emohua LGA of Rivers, on Monday, March 8, 2021.

“In the last five years of APC in government, Nigeria has become more divided. There is more hate and disunity between north and south, east and west, Muslim and Christians even… and ever, there are bigger and micro problems.

“From top to bottom, it is all confusion and crisis," he said.

Lamido advised Governor Nyesom Wike to continue to work with other Governors to restore trust in the country.

“So please, keep on inviting your people…even APC, call them here because only a leader like you and governors seem to be working together to restore trust in Nigeria.

“So please invite them, let them come. When we see you calling people, they come here and go back to their areas. This means there is hope in Nigeria.

“APC has disintegrated. There is no single job anywhere either in the north or south. What do you hear from any Nigerian president from the north? Nothing. So to ask: is the Nigerian president for the Nigerian people?

“Nigerian people are both in the north, in the south. They are both Igbos, Yorubas or Hausa, or Fulani. They are also Christians, they are also Muslims, so which means it is our common humanity which should be uniting us,” he noted.
