Allegedly, Lamido said that some governors who benefited from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have now become betrayers of the party.
Jigawa State governor made this loud statement on January 19, 2015, in Sokoto, Daily Trust reports.
Taking part at the APC rally in Jigawa, Wamakko took the opportunity to respond to Lamido’s accusations:

“My attention has been drawn to a statement by Governor Sule Lamido that I betrayed the PDP by decamping to APC after I won election on its platform
“I want to first advise Lamido that he should desist from making unguarded statements, because I consider him an elder by age. Because of age, Lamido should stop certain political statements and leave such to the younger ones. The people of Sokoto voted Alu not PDP and the people of Kano voted Kwankwasiyya not PDP. By our antecedents we have the capacity to win election on our own.”
Wamakko also called on his supporters to vote for APC from president to state house of assembly, adding that time has come to liberate the country from the evil grip of the PDP.
According to Sokoto State Governor, the country retrogressed in many respects, hence the need for Jonathan to vacate the scene.
For failing to meet the aspirations of Nigerians, Wamakko earlier advised Goodluck Jonathan to resign and apologise to Nigerians, both home and abroad.
“If I am asked to advise President Goodluck Jonathan on his re-election bid in a simple language, I will tell him to resign and apologise to Nigerians for his failure.”
