Jigawa State Governor Sule Lamido and his Rivers State counterpart Rotimi Ameachi’s rumoured interest in 2015 presidential election has received a boost; a campaign organisation for that purpose has been launched in Kaduna. This was made in a statement by Alhaji Bilya Mohammed Lawal who is the National Coordinator Lamido/Amaechi Campaign Organisation.
Lawal while launching the campaign for the joint ticket of the two governors appealed to Nigerians to support the new movement adding that the duo had proved their worth in their respective states.
It would be recalled that campaign trucks, posters and billboards bearing Lamido/Ameachi in a joint 2015 presidential ticket were sighted in Kaduna recently. Lawal also stated that the candidature of Lamido and Amaechi was desirable especially at the time that the country is in dire need of true servant leaders to move it forward.
“Presenting Governor Sule Lamido as a credible candidate for 2015 is the surest way of the PDP to retain the presidency because I have strong feelings that if the PDP is serious about a president who can take Nigeria to the next level and at par with other developed countries, Sule Lamido is the right choice.”
The Lamido/Amaechi Campaign Coordinator also lauded the emergence of Kaduna State Chapter of the New Peoples Democratic Party under the leadership of Alhaji Yaro Makama Rigachikun, describing it as a healthy political development.
