Former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, has expressed willingness to meet with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu if such an engagement would promote national development and unity.
Lamido made this known in an exclusive chat with Tribune Online at his residence on the occasion of Sallah, stressing that his disposition to meet the President is driven by the overall interest of Nigeria rather than partisan considerations.
According to him, he remains open to dialogue that could contribute to the country’s progress.
“I will be more than willing. So when are we going to see him?” he said, signalling readiness for constructive engagement.
The former governor, however, refuted speculations that he rejected an invitation from the President to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), noting that he had not been contacted by either the President or any representative of the party.
“When was I invited? Let me know, please. Did he send you to me? I’m hearing this from you for the first time,” Lamido stated.
He further emphasised that any prospective meeting with the President should centre on addressing Nigeria’s challenges and fostering national cohesion.
On reports linking him with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Lamido dismissed the claims as baseless, attributing them to the activities of social media content creators.
“In this era of social media and content creation, anything is possible. People sit in their rooms and create stories. I have not seen such pictures,” he said.
Commenting on national issues, Lamido urged Nigerians to reflect on their electoral choices, noting that leadership outcomes are a direct consequence of the decisions made by the electorate.
“When we were campaigning, we urged Nigerians to vote right, with integrity and conscience. People voted, and whatever you put in is what you get out,” he added.
He also felicitated with Muslim faithful on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr, calling for sustained prayers for peace, unity and stability in the country.
“We thank Allah Almighty for sparing our lives to witness Ramadan. It was a period of repentance, prayers and supplications,” Lamido said.
He further prayed for enduring peace and prosperity in Nigeria, urging leaders to act in the best interest of the nation.
