The Jigawa state Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) has responded to what it calls a misleading and fabricated fictions labelled against its leader and former Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido by the State NNPC gubernatorial candidate in the 2023 Elections, Mal. Aminu Ringim.

A statement issued and signed by the party’s State Publicity Secretary, Mal. Kyari Jitau Madamuwa described the purported, and baseless critics as malicious, and unfounded lies against decent, patriotic and well grounded politician of a repute, the former governor of.jigawa state, saying “we won’t fold our arms watching and allowing unscrupulous claims coming from any angle without fighting or responding back.

The statement described Aminu Ringim as a “Mad Political dog, barking, and moving from one place to another for safe landing after severe defeat during the last general elections without Knowing that his anticedents were running out of time.

It contended that having realized that, he could never survive from the deep political grave he has dug for himself in Jigawa State, he has turned himself to be a parochial liar, spreading all sorts of baseless, malicious and unfounded lies against decent, patriotic and well-grounded politician of repute particularly the former PDP Governor of Jigawa state, Alh. Sule Lamido.

According to the statement, Alh. Aminu Ibrahim Ringim  has been in the Jigawa state’s political arena as far back since the creation of jigawa state about thirty three years now and hold several positions in governments of jigawa state but could not utilize his political postures, expertise and influence in winning the ticket in 2023 gubernatorial elections, only to score 37,156 votes as the gubernatorial candidate of his party, the NNPP.

This poor outing, according to PDP,  has clearly demonstrated that Ringim wasn’t a real grassroot politician with all the wizards and exposure as he claimed, in winning the hearts of his people at polls in realization of his set objectives, situation which affects his sense of political judgement.

It could be recalled that The NNPP Chieftain had condemned former Jigawa State Governor Alhaji Sule Lamido’s book, “Being True to My Self,” saying it is full of untruths.
Ringim specifically disputed Lamido’s claim that his parents were from Niger Republic, insisting that his father is an indigene of Ringim Local Government Area.

Replying, Ringim stated “I was born in a village called Bagon Maidawakai, and my father’s grave is in Ringim,” Ringim said, adding that Lamido’s claim was a deliberate attempt to dent his reputation and political career.

The  statement caution the NNPP candidate on the need to be politically educated that, “gone are the days of his kind of dark-age politics, to modern times of politics of Issues and Developments in moving with modern times globalization.

“We advised him to go back to the drawing board as the political atmosphere in Nigeria and Jigawa state in particular can accommodate yesteryears kind of the game.
PDP in Jigawa state therefore implored its teeming supporters and other well meaning people of the to ignore the already sinked Aminu Ringim as no effort could save him from from his Deep Political Grave.

PDP assured that, all necessary steps are being taken into account in seeing to the emancipation of both jigawa state and the country from tyrannical leadership to a purposeful governance under the ticket of the People’s Democratic Party, ( PDP) come 2027 general elections as the teeming Nigerian populace are fed up with the deceptive APC leadership in the country.
