Former Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido, has said none of the leading presidential contenders has what it takes to fix Nigeria.
Lamido made this statement on Friday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
He particularly blasted President Bola Tinubu, the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, counterpart, Peter Obi.
According to him, voting should depend on who has the right kind of quality and calibre to address the problems facing the country.

‘You cannot preach peace only when it reaches your doorstep’ — Sowore slams Tinubu “Look, from my own personal opinion, in my view, voting should depend on who is the person with the right kind of quality and calibre to be able to address the same problem.
“Peter Obi, Tinubu, Atiku, none of them is there for Nigeria,” Lamido said.
He said Tinubu, Atiku and Obi are merely scratching the surface of the issue, talking about the symptoms without addressing the causes.
According to him, Nigeria’s real problem is not subsidy, insecurity or poverty alone, but indiscipline, lack of law and order, and lack of courage to enforce the law.
He said if he was running for president, he would not talk about subsidy or insecurity first. He would promise Nigerians one thing, enforcement of law and order.
Lamido also accused the leading politicians of lacking firm ideological convictions and jumping from party to party in search of power.
He said the frequent defections show that most of them are more interested in acquiring power than in advancing the welfare of Nigerians.
