2019: Sule Lamido for president posters flood Lagos PDP secretariat
The 2019 presidential posters of Alhaji Sule Lamido, a former governor of Jigawa state on Thursday, April 6, surfaced at the secretariat of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos state.
According to Daily Trust, the posters bearing Lamido’s picture were pasted at strategic areas of the secretariat right from the entrance.
It was also gathered that some members of the party were also wearing branded T-shirts with inscription ‘Lamido for 2019’. Lamido 2019 presidency project was said to be championed by some northerners who were PDP members in Lagos state.
One of them, Hassan Mohammed, an official of the party at Ikeja Ward I said they were calling on Lamido to contest because they believed he had the capacity to rule the country.
Mohammed said: “We have seen his performance as governor of Jigawa state for eight years. He is indeed a man of the people and he has that pedigree and reputations to fly the party’s flag come 2019.” However, the Lagos PDP distanced itself from the posters, saying it had not endorsed any candidate for 2019. This was disclosed by the party’s spokesman Taofik Gani.
