I‘ll become president in 2019 – Lamido

Former governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido has said he would contest the nation’s Presidency on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party in 2019.

Lamido made this known to the press in his village, Bamainain.



 He, however, said the party’s ticket would not be given to anybody on the platter of gold, adding that a candidate must earn it.

 “If my party finds me worthy of its presidential ticket to serve Nigeria, I will thank God and oblige.

 “Although there are issues in the party that we are all working to resolve; we hope to have success soon and come out united.

 “As I’m talking to you now, we are working silently to resolve our differences and bring back to our fold those that left the party for the All Progressives Congress,” he said.
