‎Former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, has issued a stark warning to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, suggesting that the alleged misuse of federal agencies to suppress opposition parties could ultimately cause the collapse of his presidency.
‎Speaking to journalists in Birnin Kudu, Jigawa State, after being elected as a national delegate for the upcoming Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congress, Lamido expressed his concerns clearly.
‎”The use of government institutions as tools for political persecution will not only tarnish the reputation of the presidency but could also lead to its undoing,” Lamido warned.
‎”What we are witnessing today is an abuse of power that is reminiscent of authoritarian regimes, and if unchecked, it will crumble under the weight of its own injustices.”
‎Lamido accused President Tinubu and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of systematically “weaponising” federal agencies to weaken political rivals ahead of the 2027 elections.
‎”We are seeing the rise of a system where agencies meant to serve the people are being deployed to silence those who dare to challenge the status quo,” he added.
‎He further stressed that such tactics could backfire, calling on Nigerians to remain vigilant.
‎”The truth always has a way of emerging,” Lamido said.
‎”No matter how much you try to silence the voices of dissent, the people will always find a way to rise. History will judge us all.”
