Former Jigawa State Governor, Senator Dr. Sule Lamido has faulted the June 12, Democracy Day speech of president Bola Ahmed Tinubu describing it as mere hallucination
Lamido on his X handle wrote with the title: “Hallucinating June 12, there was a June 11 before June 12”.
Taking on Tinubu, Lamido said, “It is obvious the change of the Democracy Day celebration like the National Anthem is part of running battle to entirely settle personal scores. The office of the President should not be dragged that low!”
Lamido explained that “All those mentioned in the President’s speech belong to the ‘Sidon look’ group! No amount of deconstruction and reconstruction to stand history on its head can bury the truth, Was the President really reading a speech or hallucinating?”
“It must clearly be understood that there was June 11 before June 12! All the heroes listed in the speech, none but a very few were in SDP on June 11. In the campaigns we undertook in all the States of the Federation none of these were there, Babagana Kingibe can attest to this.
“All of these have no idea how Abiola defeated Bashir Tofa in Kano and even at his polling unit. Abiola swept all the States in North as opposed to their son Bashir Tofa. He virtually won all the State in Nigeria. The June 12 was a National voice and resolve and a National accomplishment.
“The elements in National Democratic Coalition (NADECO) simply snatched away the finished product at the end of the mill and in so doing sectionalized and trivialized and diminished an otherwise National sacrifice bereft of today’s religious, regional, ethnic and ephemeral politics especially EMILOKUN claim” Lamido stressed
