The Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido has called on President Goodluck Jonathan to save the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from a total collapse.

The call by the Jigawa state governor whose sons have been arrested for looting over 10 billion naira from the local government funds of the state, is coming at a time when the major leaders of the PDP are defecting for the All progressives Congress (APC).

“I am short of words to express my pain. It is agonising to see the party built in every home, in every village, town and city all over Nigeria with lots of sweat and sacrifice being destroyed.” Governor Lamido wrote in a message to the President.
