-Group canvasses 2019 presidency support for Sule Lamido.

-The  Save Nigeria Crusade group also condemned President Buhari for failing to fulfill his campaign promises to Nigerians.

Group urges Sule Lamido to contest 2019 presidential election.

The Save Nigeria Crusade group, has thrown its weight behind the ambition of PDP stalwart and former governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido to become the country’s president come 2019.

The group called on Nigerians to vote out President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) for a better alternative come 2019.

They accused Buhari of failing to deliver on his promises to Nigerians.

A press release, issued in Bauchi, on Friday, by the group’s National Coordinator, Usman Yusuf Saminu, called on Lamido to save the nation from decay by contesting for the nation’s presidency in 2019.

“The time has come for the man who can do the job to be ushered in and Nigerians are desperate to usher in Sule Lamido presidency, come 2019,” Saminu said.

“Political victimization and witch-hunting of Sule Lamido under the guise of ‘anti-corruption’ cannot reverse the hand of the clock.”

“For the near total collapse of our economic structures, as well as artificially inflicted hardships and raging poverty never in history experienced in Nigeria-as a result of the president’s expired and decrepit economic ideas”

“Inflation rose to above 300 per cent, FERMA was grounded to a halt, 2016 and 2017 budgets could not attain 35 per cent effective implementation, the worse ever in the country and the naira has collapsed to all time low, power generation is horrible while most APC states cannot pay salaries despite the huge bail outs and Paris Club funds, a development never witnessed under the PDP”. Saminu submitted.

He also berated President Buhari’s media aide, Garba Shehu, asking him to “read the electorate act and the constitution and understand the meaning of criminal prosecution before dumping his garbage and tantrums,” adding that Garba “should rather “apologise for his boss’ inability and incompetence in office and for wasting 36 months in exchange for hunger, hardship and starvations. Nigeria will vote him out in 2019.”
