He decried that the same problems for which he criticized the government are existing in the current government of the APC.

Affirming that he has no party, the forme4r Emir asserted that “Asiwaju knows that his party is Nigeria.

According to Lamido Sanusi, “I keep repeating, hope you remember that I lost my job at the central bank for this same problem. It is not about a particular party. I have no party. My party is Nigeria. This is the problem we had in 2014. Asiwaju knows my party is Nigeria.”
