Former Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido has rejected El-Rufai’s call for opposition leaders from the PDP to join the Social Democratic Party (SDP). He also ask El-Rufai not to fight the President because of anger nor for revenge.

While addressing the broader political landscape, Lamido cautioned El-Rufai against making leadership decisions based on emotions.

“Leadership is not driven by anger, frustration, or personal ambition. It requires patience, foresight, and a commitment to the peace and well-being of the nation,” he said.

Regarding calls to remove President Bola Tinubu, Lamido warned against opposition driven by personal grievances.

“If the goal is to remove Tinubu, it should not be out of anger. You don’t fight a leader simply because he upset you or for revenge.

Governance should be about national interest, not personal emotions,” he declared.

He urged Nigerian politicians to focus on the country’s progress rather than personal disputes.

“Nigeria’s image in the world is at stake. Our governance must respect human rights and ensure peace. What we need is reform, not emotional reactions,” Lamido concluded.
