Former Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has warned that he might leave the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) if its internal crisis isn’t resolved. Lamido expressed deep disappointment over what he described as deliberate attempts by some individuals to destroy the party.

“If we cannot find solutions to the problems facing the PDP, I will have no option than to look elsewhere,” Lamido said in an interview with the BBC Hausa Service. He lamented calculated efforts by some elements within the party to weaken and eventually destroy the PDP.

The elder statesman noted that the PDP, once a unifying platform for Nigerians, is now plagued by internal wrangling that has left loyal members frustrated and disillusioned. He warned that continued infighting could further erode the party’s strength ahead of future elections.

Lamido has given the PDP a 10-day ultimatum to resolve its crisis, calling for the dissolution of the recent Ibadan elective convention and the formation of a national caretaker committee.
