I AM NOT INTERESTED IN BECOMING THE PRESIDENT SAYS LAMIDO Jigawa state governor, Sule Lamido, has denied reports that he is interested in contesting the 2015 presidential election. Lamido who has been touted as the anointed candidate of former President Olusegun Obasanjo made the declaration while receiving members of the new Peoples Democratic Party’s “Justice team” under the leadership of Abubakar Baraje, from the 34 local government areas of the state at the government House, Dutse. He explained that he is not in the new party for the purpose of contesting the presidential position, adding that nothing will stop him from continuous crusade against injustice, and for the rule of law, as well as fairness for Nigerian masses. “I am not bothered about sacking of ministers by president Jonathan, even if they use EFCC or other agency fighting corruption to arrest me after the end of my tenure on May 29, 2015, I will not be perturbed because I am used to going to jail,” he said.
