Governor of Niger state, Aliyu Babangida says
that one has to tell lies to survive in the political
scene of today, adding that there is no morality in
politics. He says if anyone wants to pursue
morality, they should go and become Imams or
Pastors. The Governor stated this while
inaugurating the PDP guber campaign committee
in Minna the state capital yesterday January 5th.
"If you cannot lie, get out of politics.
Anything you are involved in has its own rule.
You are in politics to win, win first and let
other things follow. Don’t be the one crying
louder; lest you will be the one they will take
to court. If you are talking of honesty or
morals, go and become an Imam or pastor.
Politics cannot be the way it used to be.
"The challenges are more now, the variables
have changed, the issues that we are going
to face in 2015 are different from the ones
we faced in 1999 and we must bear this in
mind. Our society is not as grateful as it
used to be, the values and morals have gone
down. If you want to win, use the modern
morality. We have worked for the people.
Politics is not about sadaka (giving alms),
politics reminds people of what you have
done. Go out and remind the people of what
we have done.” he said
