Former Military ruler, Ibrahim Babangida may be stepping into the re-election campaign of President Goodluck Jonathan to help reel in Governor Sule Lamido of Jigawa state.

A few days after venting his anger on President Goodluck Jonathan, Jigawa State governor, Dr. Sule Lamido, yesterday, travelled to Minna, Niger State, where he held a closed door meeting with former military head of state, General Ibrahim Babangida.

Details of the meeting were still sketchy at press time, but a source close to the parley, said the two men discussed the way forward for Nigeria.

Lamido, who during a political rally transmitted live from Dutse, the state capital, openly voiced his opposition to Jonathan and Buhari’s candidature for allowing their supporters to cause tension in the country, arrived Minna to see IBB, barely three days after Jonathan visited the former leader. But Lamido explained to journalists after his meeting that it was not coincidental for him and Jonathan to visit IBB almost the same time.

The governor, said that he had planned to go to welcome IBB from his overseas medical trip ahead of Jonathan but for poor weather, which disrupted his flight plan.
