Former Governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has asked his two sons who were arraigned with him on charges of corruption to forgive him over their prison experience, as he claimed total responsibility for their ordeal in the hands of the law. In an interview with international radio station, VOA Hausa service, Lamido described his arrest as the beginning of restoration of confidence in political leadership in Nigeria and said he was only being witch-hunted because he is outspoken.
“In the process to improve democracy, there would be some mistakes. I am not a perfect human being; I have my own shortcomings. And in my own case, I’m outspoken, which perhaps explained why people found me too offensive and irritating”.
Lamido explained that his pains weren’t his detention, but that of his sons who are innocent but had to suffer simply because their father served as a governor. He admitted he caused their detention and as such they should forgive him and be patient with the situation they found themselves.
He also stated that he has no grudges against anybody over his arrest, and that those who see him as a corrupt person were entitled to their opinions.
